I have a view that is loading content just fine. I would like to have the view refresh, grab the posts again in case there are new ones, when I click a button.

Is there a simple way to do this?

The simplest way is adding an HTML Button that leads to the page where the View is inserted (hence, reloads the page)

Example:

<a href="whatever.url/page-with-view">Reload</a>

Views only feature a reset button for Searches, but not a "reload" button as you mention. I usually use the above manual HTML.

That stinks. There should be a method for refreshing a view, the same way a filter option does, using an AJAX call.
