Refresh browser automatically (example: F5 key)

Thommy

Hello,

unfortunately I haven't found anything here that answers my question. I want to automatically play the photos in the folder as a slideshow. If a new photo is added to the folder via FTP in the meantime while the automatic playback of all photos is running, it is unfortunately not included in the slideshow. How can I make it so that when all photos are played via the slideshow, new photos are also automatically included? If I now press the F5 key in the slideshow, the slideshow stops and the new photo is included, but I have to go to the play symbol again. Does this all work automatically?

Greetings,
Thommy

Thommy See custom javascript docs. You should be able to use something like this:

_c.config = {

  // automatically refresh page after x seconds / 0 = disabled
  refresh: 0,

  // set url to refresh when `refresh` options triggers / default false will reload current page
  refresh_url: false, // false | 'nohash' | '{custom url}'

  // popup options
  popup: {
    autoplay: true, // autoplay slideshow on popup open
    open: true, // automatically opens first image on initial page load (only if first item is image)
  },
}

You would only assign the refresh options if you want the browser to automatically refresh after X seconds.

Hello Karl,

I have created the following new file: _files/js/custom.js
I have adjusted the content of "custom.js", but it doesn't work. What have I done wrong?

_c.config = {

// automatically refresh page after x seconds / 0 = disabled
refresh: 3,

// set url to refresh when refresh options triggers / default false will reload current page
refresh_url: {https://my-domain.com/cloud/index.php}, // false | 'nohash' | '{custom url}'

// popup options
popup: {
autoplay: true, // autoplay slideshow on popup open
open: true, // automatically opens first image on initial page load (only if first item is image)
},
}

Thommy Without a link, I can't say exactly what's wrong, but it does look like you have a syntactic error:

Thommy refresh_url: {https://my-domain.com/cloud/index.php}, // false | 'nohash' | '{custom url}'

With the {} braces character, it kinda means to insert your own value here, without the braces, but with the single quotes ''. It should be like this:

refresh_url: 'https://my-domain.com/cloud/index.php',

Because there was a syntax error, I am guessing that may have caused an error for the entire object. After modifying, if it still doesn't work, I will need to see a link.

It worked. Thank you
