I have a solution But it still refreshes the page but with some binding commands. Any movement of the Mouse, Keyboard, and so on will reset the timer.
Admin/Main Settings/Page Settings add this command to Custom head code.
<script>
var time = new Date().getTime();
$(document.body).bind("blur focus focusin focusout load resize scroll unload click dblclick mousedown mouseup mousemove mouseover mouseout mouseenter mouseleave change select submit keydown keypress keyup error hover change", function(e) {
time = new Date().getTime();
});
function refresh() {
if(new Date().getTime() - time >= 600000)
window.location.reload(true);
else
setTimeout(refresh, 600000);
}
setTimeout(refresh, 600000);
</script>
600000 = 10 mins.. Make changes as needed

Mohammad, not sure what you mean by "URL that newsfeed get info".
Each plugin, including system plugins sends out needed content to newsfeed and newsfeed plugin in turn just displays it.

Hi Aliia,
I saw database,the ow_newsfeed_action table,and find out that values of data column are in jason,So I guess newsfeed plugin send out data in a specified format and I think it possible that js get data(like ajax) and display it.
for example (I'm not sure about this) when some body click on "view more" button,newsfeed send more data to display.so there most be a URL to load and get data.

Paul Cuffe you know when you are ready for a real live site to test it on. Just let me know.

hi all, any new development regarding this matter, @MarkieMark67 I have tried your idea but it still refreshes whilst I'm busy typing, mouse movement nor key strokes stops it from refreshing. I hope this can be sorted quickly.

Hello All.
After a small change in the script, it is working for me.
Just delete the word "body" in $(document.body).
<script>
var time = new Date().getTime();
var refreshTime = 6*1000;
$(document).bind("blur focus focusin focusout load resize scroll unload click dblclick mousedown mouseup mousemove mouseover mouseout mouseenter mouseleave change select submit keydown keypress keyup error hover change", function(e) {
time = new Date().getTime(); });
function refresh()
{
if(new Date().getTime() - time >= refreshTime)
window.location.reload(true);
else
setTimeout(refresh, refreshTime);
}
setTimeout(refresh, refreshTime);
</script>
Change the number 6 to value in seconds that you want that your site reload.
