Hey.

I will add a config option in the UserCP so you can set this auto refresh timer to a higher value.

Honestly, I run this constantly and do not have a problem with the refresh; but I realize others may be on a slower connection or whatever and a 30 second refresh rate might be annoying.

I'll let you know when I have added the config option; but for now you will just have to suffer with it Smilie

Hey,

For now, I added an Option in the UserCP (Options: Other):

Mobile - Disable Auto Refresh

So you can simply disable this refresh completely if you find it annoying.

Yep, tried that, works as advised. Great!

Thanks

Please complain or post as much criticism as you can.

I'm a "big boy" and do not take it personally and in fact, I really like the feedback.

Having said that, there is no guarantee I will make a change based on the comment or suggestion; but I promise to read and consider the idea based on my development priorities.

Your feedback is much appreciated and thanks for the interest.

Your body needs a break once in a while! I find that exercise and Sudoku puzzles help clear my mind and sometimes let flashes of solutions to problems I've been working on for days seep into my consciousness.

Cheers,
Don

For mobile "who is online" and for the member's profile, I added code for usergroup default avatars for those who do not have avatars:

Code:
    
          $avatarurl = fetch_avatar_url($userinfo['userid']);
           if (!$avatarurl) {
             if($userinfo['usergroupid'] == '10')  // Mods
                   $icon_url = 'https://www.unix.com/customavatars/avatar302016126_2.png';
               else if($userinfo['usergroupid'] == '5')  //Mods
                   $icon_url = 'https://www.unix.com/customavatars/avatar302016126_2.png';
               else if($userinfo['usergroupid'] == '13') // Banned
                   $icon_url = 'https://www.unix.com/customavatars/avatar34166_2.gif';
               else if($userinfo['usergroupid'] == '11') // Undergrounders
                 $icon_url = 'https://www.unix.com/customavatars/avatar44786_2.gif';
               else if($userinfo['usergroupid'] == '9') // Readonly
                 $icon_url = 'https://www.unix.com/customavatars/read_only_1.png';
               else if($userinfo['usergroupid'] == '17') //Vips
                 $icon_url = 'https://www.unix.com/customavatars/vip.png';
              else  // default
               $icon_url = 'https://www.unix.com/customavatars/avatar46598_1.gif';
              $neo_avatar = $icon_url;
            } else    {
           $neo_avatar = $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/' . $avatarurl[0];
           }
