Shoutbox

But it will only disappear after 1 minute

I guess I see the point... it will no longer refresh when you're not on the first page. Good enough?

On / Off Switch?

It's a one minute refresh; you don't need that.

The Who's Online doesn't have a switch (well, it does, but it's in the admin cp )...

of course I do

Why? If you're going to click something to enable or disable the refresh, you might as well just click your browser's refresh button!

i get dodgy postdata error messages when i use the auto refresh so no it would not be a good idea and would be bad for the server load

Uhh... the Latest Posts refresh is nothing like the shoutbox one. You will not get that error.

Personally i must say the auto refresh is very irritating. I always go to the lastest posts page and look for the oldest port i haven't read yet. Then i open every post one for one in a new tab until i reach the latest post i haven't read yet. Then i press the latest posts button again to see what hapened while i was posting.

Now it constantly refreshes and new posts are added already while i'm posting which can even push posts i didn't read yet to the 2nd page. Bottom line, i'd just like to press refresh myself. Could there be some option to rurn it off, please?
