Hey Guys,

Just launched my forum yesterday over at http://www.musclehack.com/forum/

Things are going great except that it's not showing the latest content without having to refresh.

So if I went to my homepage now, it wouldn't be current. If I then hit refresh, it will show the new members, latest posts and so on.

But then if I click into a specific forum, those posts won't be there, until I refresh again. All users are experiencing this and some are thinking that their newly created posts have disappeared.

I'm not sure what is causing this. Any ideas?

Thank you for the great software

in general, most of the forum pages do not refresh themselves. we do not suggest to add
auto refreshing of pages as it could be a data hog for users with low bandwidth internet

you might consider adding a plugin to show latest posts of the forum (it could be ajax based - if available)

No, that's not the issue. The page does autorefresh after posting, but it doesn't show the post. If i click on a link to my forum right now, it won't be showing its current state. I then have to refresh the page for that to show.

If I go into a specific forum now, it will be showing how it looked maybe a few hours ago before I refresh again.

^ I have navigated through your forum and also checked posts of last 24 hours. I could not see any problem ..
