Why would you want to redirect users to random threads, I would find that annoying.

+1. What would the purpose be?

See some time some of my user and also me open a thread and leave the forum for long time like 3hr and +, it will be great for me if i can make my idle user redirect to other thread act like they are active and i think my page visitor rank will be good .. i don't know the details but i have seen a forum did something same it's redirect 15 min idle user to index or other thread.. just cures.. please don't take it other-way
I wouldn't do that, it's not good to fake user activity.

thnx any way .. my English is not so good so i cant elaborate my speech
, how ever it would be good tho if the same thing can be made with a bot, and redirect idle user to index after they stay in a post or thread more then xxx min
Here is the function i was talking about that i have found in a site used, all i wanted to add some code that can only auto interval when user are idle
<script type = "text/javascript">
function reDirect() {
x = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 30);
newPage = "forumdisplay.php?fid=" + x ;
window.location = newPage;
}
reDirect();
</script>
just give the header, meta refresh and set it 10 minutes (10*60 secons)
the last opened thread by user will refresh automatically and give the cut idle time user back..
Open and edit showthread template.. refresh each 10 secons
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10">
{$headerinclude}
or give redirect to other page as you like
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10;url=http://yourforum.com/lazy-sleepy.html/">

That is a good idea thnx now only remain the random thread things
ACP > Templates > Your theme templates > Showthread Templates > showthread > and add the following code just before the </head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var urls = new Array("URL_1", "URL_2", "URL_3", "URL_4", "URL_5");
function redirect()
{
window.location = urls[Math.floor(urls.length*Math.random())];
}
var temp = setInterval("redirect()", 10000);
</script>
You just need to change the URL_X to the desired thread URLs you want users to redirect to, and 10000 to the number of "Miliseconds" after the redirection occurs.
