Mr. Jinx updated What's New Tweak with a new update entry:

[2.1.2] Compatibility updated

• The "What's new" option that keeps the tab highlighted will now work with any add-on that uses new content, like XFRM, XFMG and third-party add-ons.
• Code cleanup.

Any chance you can make this auto update the Latest Activity tab?

 

[webbouk]

Would it be possible to add 'Unanswered threads ' as a tab ?

I guess that should be possible, I'll look at it.

Would it be possible to add 'Unanswered threads ' as a tab ?

What do you mean exactly? You can add tabs / navigation items yourself from the admin menu, but you probably mean something different.

 

[webbouk]

I meant like here...




(excuse the spider type )

 

[Mr. Jinx]

You can do that with 'public navigation'.
Find the 'unanswered threads' menu item and then change the parent item to be 'What's new' instead of 'Forum'.

Mr. Jinx updated What's New Tweak with a new update entry:

[2.1.3] Feature update + maintenance

• Refresh function also added to the 'Latest activity' page (requested by @Joe Link).
• Code cleanup: Now using native XF cookie handling instead of using a third party library. This will create a new cookie and reset existing user refresh settings to default.
• Upgrade notice: After the upgrade you can safely remove the directory jscookie located in js/MrJinx/vendor/ as it is not needed anymore!

@Mr. Jinx be more specific, you can delete from js/MrJinx/vendor/jscookie just jscookie folder or you can delete entire MrJinx folder from js?

 

[Mr. Jinx]

You can delete the jscookie folder located in the folder js/MrJinx/vendor/
I've update the instructions to be more clear.

Work great. Thank you.

This is a nice add-on, but I wish it included the option to only use the menu revisions (I can turn off the timed auto-refresh but the manual refresh button is still there). I'm not a fan of that only because where it is position adds an additional line in the header area and that takes up a lot of geography on mobile. If the refresh icon were next to 'New Post's text instead of below it, that would be more efficient.

 

[webbouk]

I'm happy with it as it is and our users haven't complained

You can completely disable the refresh function using permissions. Just set it to 'No' for your global groups like unregistered/registered/administrative/etc..

Updated it from 2.1.2 to 2.1.3, removed the jscookie-folder and the automatic update doesn't work anymore. Just the manual refresh button is visible/usable. Enable Whats new refresh options is set to yes for this usergroup. Is there anything else that need to be (re-)set?

Thank you sir - missed that...appreciated!

Sounds like something didn't update correctly.
Can you check for outdated templates?
Are there any errors in de web console when you press the 'play' refresh button. (Debug console / inspect / F12 in browser)

Also, is there a way to make it to where when I post a new profile post, it refreshes the page?


i added the update status to the whats-new/profile-posts section. When i post to it, i have to manually refresh the page to see my post.

Personally I don't use profile posts and have disabled this feature completely, but I guess the 'hide search id' option could also be implemented for this. I'll try to put it in the next release.

Also, is there a way to make it to where when I post a new profile post, it refreshes the page?

That would be out of scope for this add-on.

 

[Goodnightpanda]

My site actually depends on the profile posts so we are on the opposite ends of the spectrum haha

If you could throw that into the next release or hotfix, i would greatly appreciate it!
