How to refresh activitystream each X second ?

[Altari]

Hello,

I would like to automatically refresh the activity stream every, maybe 5 seconds. Is there a way to do this ? (Vb's default setting is only for minutes).

I had a look in clientscript/vbulletin_activitystream.js and change some things, but that's not enough and do nothing.

Thank you.

you will need to edit these line in activitystream.js file

Change this line

if(this.options.refresh*60000>300000){this.idlerefresh=this.options.refresh*60000}else{this.idlerefresh=300000}

To

if(this.options.refresh*1000>60000){this.idlerefresh=this.options.refresh*1000}else{this.idlerefresh=60000}

now if you enter 5 in vB default setting, it will be treated as 5 seconds.

Does your forum really get that busy that you need to refresh every 5 seconds as opposed to every 5 minutes? The more things you give to VB to do more often will chew up CPU cycles as well as pounding on your database. Your host may not appreciate that.

Taking a huge gamble by doing every 5 seconds.............Just saying

This depend of users viewing the activity stream isn't it ? I have something like 400-600 users on my board at the same time, but nomore than 10/20 users watching the activity stream, so the the server load should be negligible ? (Dedicated server)

Thank you for your help, but that's not enough and this doesn't work.

try this one (last code was refrshing in every 60 seconds or more)

Replace

if(this.options.refresh*60000>300000){this.idlerefresh=this.options.refresh*60000}else{this.idlerefresh=300000}

With

if(this.options.refresh){this.idlerefresh=this.options.refresh*1000}else{this.idlerefresh=60000}
