AJAX Threads: What is it?
AJAX Threads brings your threads alive, making them automatically refresh without needing to reload the page.

Uses

AJAX Threads is the ideal product for forums with busy threads or which deal with any sort of "event" be that TV shows, sports or game releases!
AJAX Threads allows you to make topics "auto update" without the user having to refresh. This can give performance benefits when applied to threads which receive a lot of refresh requests, and can increase user participation.
Topics can be turned live by admins individually, or you can set whole forums to have their threads be live automatically. You can even allow only VIP usergroups to have threads refresh automatically to increase subscription numbers.

Major Features:

Automatically Refresh Threads: Users will now see new posts in "real time" without having to refresh the page

Performance Benefits: If your forum receives lots of refresh requests on threads being posted in often this can put a lot of strain on your server - AJAX Threads will greatly reduce server resources used in those situations by refreshing only the minimum information required.

Total Control: You can set threads individually or per forum. You can set particular usergroups to receive the benefit, and you can even have it apply automatically to popular threads!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* vBOption: Enable Automatic Updates
* vBOption: Refresh Interval
* vBOption: Idle Timeout
* vBOption: Automatic Un-Idle
* vBOption: Enable Information Bar (Tells users how often the thread refreshes, whether they're idle, and how to un-idle, etc)
* vBOption: Maximum Shown Posts
* Ability for users to manually refresh threads if Automatic Updates are disabled (cannot refresh more often than Refresh Interval regardless)
* Ability for users to manually un-idle themselves if automatic updates are enabled and the Idle Timeout is reached
* Per-usergroup setting to determine if automatic updates are enabled
* Per-usergroup setting to determine if manual updates are enabled
* Per-category setting to determine if automatic updates are enabled
* Per-category setting to determine if manual updates are enabled
* "Live" image on forumdisplay for threads that have automatic or manual updates enabled
* Posts fetched by AJAX Threads are marked as read

Tested this on one of my Forums (Uninstalled Live Topic to try this one)

Immediately hit some bugs during testing.

1. It appears the new posts are fetched as specified in Chrome but no updates were fetched when testing second account on IE9. I tried a few times and each time the only browser fetching the updates was Chrome, IE9 would not update posts even when clicking 'Reload'.

2. It seems like it duplicates the last received post from Account #2 when I make a post from Account #1 - On refresh the duplicated post seen prior to refresh isn't there which is probably a good sign.

Apart from that pretty pleased with how it functions straight out of the box especially pleased that I can run this Mod without modifying it to work with my Google Adsense Mod that inserts ads into first posts for guests (had this issue with Live Topic but not this!)

But until the above can be resolved it will sadly remain disabled

Another issue but this time in Chrome the first say 5 posts show up in the reply via Quick Reply the 6th and 7th posts do not show up when I press quick reply, they're not even sent to the server - when refreshing the browser they do not appear even though I clicked Post Reply in Quick Reply.

The symptom of this is instead of quickly using AJAX to send the Quick Reply the whole browser reloads for a quick reply which is not suppose to happen. When this happens after clicking post reply via quick reply the post never gets registered by the server.

Seems to be happening frequently.

Update The only time IE9 seems to fetch the posts is when I submit a post via IE9 and it refreshes via AJAX to show my post it ALSO fetches the subsequent 10 posts I posted 30 seconds ago via Chrome.

Unfortunately I am at present unable to test anything in Internet Explorer because it chaincrashes - it's not even open for 2 seconds before "Internet Explorer has stopped working blah blah".

I'm also unable to replicate any duplicating post issues. I tested it like so:
- Made quick reply from one account in Chrome
- Looked in Firefox on another account, then made a quick reply after the post had loaded

Even vice versa I had no issues.

Could you please try disabling all other modifications? Maybe another mod is causing a conflict here...

Disabled all mods issue is still there with IE.

I just tested (quickly) in Firefox and the Modification works and doesn't appear to be having any issues so perhaps this is isolated to IE9. Let me know when you can get IE9 working on your end you might be able to reproduce the bugs in light of this info.

UpdateDuplication still occurs in Chrome when testing with Chrome and Firefox

Uhm, I'm not exactly sure what the first two mean, but does it mean it was fixed?

Also, something's ugly: http://prntscr.com/44i8u <- how to disable that image from showing?

1. Yes, it was not noted in the changelog because it was not a reported issue at our forums.

2. Disable the threadbit_display plugin for this product.

Then there must be something else going on because Chrome absolutely does not duplicate anything here. Could you please PM me with FTP info and an AdminCP account with at least Can Admin Styles?

Have you tried with IE9 yet? That's where the real issue is.

I can tolerate some duplication here and there but the fact it doesn't work with IE9 (not sure of other version of IE means I won't be rolling this out)
