With this simple mod you can autorefresh your index forum page.
open:
/styles/prosilver/template/overall_header.html
find:
add before:
Code: Select all
<!-- IF not S_IS_BOT -->
<!-- IF SCRIPT_NAME == 'index' --><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5"/><!-- ENDIF -->
<!-- ENDIF -->
change 5 to change the time for autorefresh (in second)

Erm... I would rather not comment on the idea itself but in case someone really insists on doing this, you
must do this in
overall_header.html itself, and
before the closing
</head> tag. To limit that to index page, you need to wrap that between
<!-- IF SCRIPT_NAME == 'index' --><!-- ENDIF -->

When I was a NUB I tried auto refresh every 15 minutes but found it was not for me. Not in a forum. I do use it in a few parts of the main site and blog but forums?? Interferes too much with the users.
Mind you, I am not slamming what you are doing... It's your site. Just MO is all this is. Thanks for sharing too.
