First of all, thank you for all your work, your addons make my day-to-day life in my community much easier.

And now a suggestion/request, if possible.
Would it be possible to refresh the page without reloading the full url? that is, right now it refreshes the entire page, so if a user is browsing in the lower part of the forum when the page is refreshed, it sends him to the upper part.

Perhaps refreshing just the body could make it not refresh the whole page.

Ozzy, how about refreshing whats new instead of forumhome. Possible?

I’ll look into this, I didn’t realize it sent you back to the top.

It should be possible, I’ll probably do that in a different addon.

Please make this an option, I don't understand why you would do this

Because I believe that this might cause a problem with adsense.

Because I believe that this might cause a problem with adsense.

Does adsense distinguish between logged in or not or simply page views? Not sure I agree but I'm no expert either.

 

[Ozzy47]

Well bots siting on a page constantly refreshing might be an issue with views/clicks. I'm not 100% sure but for me its better to err on the side of caution rather than messing someones income up.

Any refreshing is against those terms so it's not logged in or not, it's in violation, period! But we decide the risks...

Agreed. I added a warning to the overview page to not use this if you run AdSense.

 

[NealC]

I suggest reverting the logged in or not as I either want to use it "for the site" or not. Up to you, just my $.02. Or make it an add-on option.

 

[Ozzy47]

Give me a bit.
