Signage

Post#1 by juliodiz » 28 Dec 2016, 15:32

I'm using it in an elevator and the connection sometimes goes offline. If the page is not available I would like to keep the last page loaded.

The problem is that I need to wait again and reload with a signal to display the page.

How can i do that?

Hello juliodiz,

Which browser are you using? What happens when network goes down - what type of page is displayed? Did you try alternate browser (in case it handles such issue better)?

Thank you.

Thank you for your help!
I'm using firefox. What happens is that they are installed in an elevator, but when the elevator is on the move and the page reloads, show page that can not be displayed from firefox (Because it has no wifi signal until returning to the first floor)

Ideally, if he could not load the page he would still be displaying the last one.

How can they install porteus kiosk in a WiFi lift without displaying the error page that is no signal?

Try this parameter:

Code: Select all

run_command=echo 'user_pref("accessibility.blockautorefresh", true);' >> $profile/user.js
It should make the webpage never refreshing automatically.

But i want automatically.
The problem is when the wifi is not avaliable. Its possible to refresh only when the Page is avaliable?
