Hello,

It seems the microblog can't automatic refresh, if many posts in a short time then you will miss them.

Do we have a plan to add the automatic ajax refresh?

thanks,

Yes, this is definitely a worthwhile feature (though with potential performance implications, obviously). I'll look into adding it soon and will update this thread accordingly.

Performance is indeed may be a problem, I discussed with some guys,

found that may be we can add an 'updated time' identifier to the microblog,

all Ajax request will check with the 'updated time' first then try to select updated data if need.

Howerver, we can also add a config to open/shutdown this feature, if the host isn't capable.

I've settled this question by myself -- integration with Nodejs.

Need someone able to do that work.

Where do you all expect to see the microblog feed auto-refreshing?

On the "Public Timeline" page at /microblog?

On the home page where microblog updates have bubbled up?

In a particular user's own timeline?

Maybe all of the above?

One approach I was considering was moving microblog to create views, then people could use Views Auto Refresh in Views Hacks - but we'd also get better flexibility in theming and display etc.
