If you (and you really shouldn't - read below case study) use frames for your Drupal project then you may need this module. The Frame Refresh module uses the names of the frames to refresh the top frame for you to maintain the logged in / out state for your users. This module does not work in an ideal way but does work. The maintainer is open to feeback to improve the coding standards and also any other improvements on functionality!

Frame Refresh Module Configuration

  1. Ensure that you have a working frameset with a top frame and a main content frame
  2. Visit /admin/settings/framerefresh (if your clean urls are ON) and set the names of the frames used in your frameset.
  3. Logout and login should now trigger the top frame to be refreshed - thus updating the state.

Case Study: Music Playing Website

The only valid excuse for using frames in Drupal is when you need to have a music player in a top frame which keeps playing between page loads / site navigation so that the music doesn't get interupted. If you can think of any other excuses for using frames do let the maintainer know so that people can more easily find this module. Again - don't ever use frames without a bulletproof reason - they are totally disasterous!
