I see SOOOO many people on here constantly, asking why their posts aren't showing up, and refresh isn't working. People just say OH, just force refresh by using ctrl and f5.... I have a much easier solution, that someone posted up FOREVER ago.... Lucky for me, I was around when that was posted so now I can help you all out...

Internet Explorer won't refresh your b2 properly, thus your recent posts do not appear unless you empty your internet files, or force refresh...

here's what to do:

Open blog.header.php, look for these lines:


@header ("Last-Modified: $last_modified_header");
@header ('ETag: "'.md5($last_modified_header.$pagenow).'"');


Replace them with these lines:

if (!$is_winIE) {
@header ("Last-Modified: $last_modified_header");
@header ('ETag: "'.md5($last_modified_header.$pagenow).'"');
}

Next, look if you can refresh in MSIE. You may have to empty your temp internet files first, but after you have done this, you won't have to worry about refreshing ever again. I promise.

Someone PLEASE make this a sticky, or pinned... Don't let this get lost at the bottom of the pile of posts again, we can save so many unanswered questions this way.
