Refreshing Report Queue

About:
Plugin that allows your report queue to refresh nearly constantly, no need to use the refresh every 30 seconds option built into PowerSchool. This is an update of a customization built by Brent Johnson. All credit goes to him. All I did was update it to page fragments and make it compatible with BrightArrow's report emailing function.

What's New in Version 4.0
This version takes Brent's previous version and moves it to page fragments so we aren't updating the report queue directly. It's also been tested and now successfully works with the BrightArrow Report Emailing feature. Previously it was one or the other.

Credit:
Again, this is just an update to Brent Johnson's previous version that was released several years ago. It's been modified by request of several schools who do not like using the built in 30 second refresh option in PowerSchool.

    tried to install this on our test server. The plugin shows Loading but nothing ever happens (let it load for about 5 minutes and nothing). I tried this on Firefox, IE and Chrome. Same results.
    Any suggestions? We are on PowerSchool 10.0.4.1

    Can this be updated to add the auto refresh to the report works report queue as well?

    We are on V 4.0.0 - loaded it in Jan 2017. It was working but has stopped.
    Any suggestions on where to start looking for the issue?
    Thank you

    Thanks

    This worked all the way up until we installed 19.11. Any news on a new one?

    We are also unable to use the plugin in 19.11

    This is an older PDS plugin that is no longer fully supported by the original developers. PSCB is working on a 19.4 compatible version.

    You could also download and install the ReportQ Plugin available at NickTech.org.

    This no longer works in 19.11. Is there something I can do to make it work?
