AtariAge Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I've noticed that when I have tabs open on my 4.4.4 forum and they've been sitting open a while, they are prepended with a pause character at some point. Why is this necessary? I could see it happening on the All Activity page since that one is monitoring for new content, but the rest of the site? I see it on this site as well. Any insight would be appreciated. And it would be nice if I could disable this unless it's serving some useful purpose. Thank you, ..Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day_ Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 When you have automatic polling turned on and the tab has been inactive for a while it shows the paused icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Yes, the icon indicates that the page is no longer polling for new notifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest submitting a ticket if the notifications are encountering an error or are not working. The automatic polling just means that the software will look for new notifications every so often if the user is still on the same page. This can be disabled though in ACP -> System -> Advanced Configuration -> disable "Enable Automatic Polling?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joy Rex Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Isn't the pause icon showing a Chrome feature (when a tab that has a site that auto-updates hasn't been accessed in a set period of time)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 No, what is being discussed is something we have implemented ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joy Rex Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Oh, I see - now that I think about it, the only places I see the pause icon in the tab are on my site and this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
