No! You shouldn't have to do that! I thought you meant automatically without having to refresh the page (via Ajax and JavaScript).Thanks, it sucks having to log in to the admin CP to refresh it.
It will update automatically and it is set to 5 minutes at the moment via a cron job. Your problem might be because of the way cron jobs in XenForo aren't guaranteed to run exactly on the interval they're supposed to as they are triggered through Javascript by people visiting your website. This might not be your problem but if you're testing your website out by yourself you might not see it update immediately as you are the only one triggering the jobs.
That's a guess and might not be so though, so I'll ask you this question, what makes you believe that it's not updating by itself?

Many people have reported that it is not changing.
The last updated text says hours ago..
We have an average of 20+ forum members on at a time and it doesn't update.
Also, I am using the XenPorta block.

Hmm... in your AdminCP, under Tools->Cron Jobs. Can you see an entry called 'Minecraft Status Query' like in the screenshot below?

@shadrxninga
Hi! Any idea on how to refresh the server status block every 5 minutes? It isn't refreshing itself with that interval, as you can see on the picture below
Here is how the cron task looks like:
Any idea on how to make it refresh with the Interval I want? Thanks for the help!

He has said he is going to several times, last time being over a month ago. I wouldn't hold your breath on an update until we see it.

I've never heard of this until now, if it has support for minecraft's built in query system or responds to server pings then yes! It will! I can't give you a clear answer yet but I'll take a look at soon.

Hey, sorry about the late reply. The Cron System in XenForo works a bit differently to how you'd probably expect. The jobs are not guaranteed to run every 5 min, that is the minimum interval between them. Whenever a user visits your site it triggers a script which checks if any cron jobs need to be run.I'd also love that feature!

So, say if the servers have just been queried by a cron job and then no one visits your site for more than 5 minutes after that, then the job will not run until someone does. That is why you might see things like, last updated 30 minutes ago. You would be the first person to visit your website since 5 minutes after the cron job ran. Basically, people need to be actively using your website for cron jobs to run! This is good in some ways, as what is the point of querying your servers when no one is looking? But, this will fix itself in future updates when I add in updating via ajax!

I'll definitely look into this, minotar seems to have large down periods from time to time...

Hehe, Lilypad is a proxy system like Bungee.
I prefer Lilypad for large servers, I run several large networks for YouTubers.
The only down-side to it is the API. Bungee's API is alot better, but if you want more players and better performance Lily is where it's at!

Ah, I see. I've done a bit of searching and this is what I've found.

So yes it does support this add-on. I can't confirm that though as I haven't tried it.
Also, I have implemented the newer protocol he's referring to that came in in 1.7 in my development build a while back but when that first came out you could only get a sample of players from the server. I'm not sure if that is still the case now, I'll look into it. Which means if he does deprecate the older querying methods this add-on will still work.
