HI,
The query section and system status (which includes temperature, load and memory usage) needs to be dynamic and interactive instead of static as the user needs to re-click again and again to refresh the query page. At least there should be a feature to set the refresh time (flexible time range) for the query page.
Thanks.
How critical is this data to your Pi-hole operation that it needs to have a live update on the dashboard? The dashboard was not designed to be a Pi management tool, the information is provided as a snapshot of the system at a point in time.
It is better to use the native tools in the Linux system to monitor these parameters. The one that changes most frequently is load, and that is best monitored by a process such as htop or top, which have live updates:
or, the pihole -c command provides real time updates as well with more focus on Pi-hole data:
There are several native Linux commands to get temperature information:

Or for the planned new interface:
what is this ?? how do i get the dashboard to live update after a certain time interval ??
This is a friendly hint by @DanSchaper that you can contribute to pihole by writing the desired features yourself and open an pull request to include it in pihole so everyone can benefit.
how would i know on which file/part of the code i need to add/edit on ? Plus I am a user not a developer, I just gave a feature suggestion that i felt like its necessary for the next big update.
This has been asked and answered many times, if you want a monitoring system for your Raspberry Pi then use a monitoring system. RPI-monitor is a very capable package.
