  • Replace visible URL to an URL without 'static' number (*1)
  • Now compatible with XF 2.1
*1) Explanation:
Normally when a visitor calls the New posts page, the page is presented as a static page with a number in the URL. Refreshing that page won't update the content inside it. This tweak will remove the number in the visible URL. Now if a visitor hits the browser's refresh button, they will actually get a fresh new page.
Example: https://www.domain.com//whats-new/posts/326902/ will be replaced by https://www.domain.com//whats-new/posts/
