Tutorial Unread Posts

[Jeff Westover]

Did you know that you can quickly see from the forum home page where there are new posts? Keep your eye on those tree icons -- red means stop, green means go...

Just reporting a minor issue:
I noticed that New Posts has moved from Forums to What's New in the left sidebar. That's fine, but when I click on New Posts, then click to a thread to read, What's New collapses and Forums expands, as though New Posts were still under Forums. When I want to proceed to another thread with new posts, I have to click on What's New and New Posts again.

Ok, I'll look at it. There was minor automatic upgrade last night and I haven't had a chance to check out the changes.

Just to clarify, you want the "New Posts" back under "Forums"??

I'm having the same issue too. I was going to let Jeff know too - didn't know if was something that just need bugs worked out or not. I tried it in all the different schemes and it seems to be the same, but as you said @MerryCarey, it can still be viewed in "What's new". Thanks for your continued hard work @Jeff Westover!

It's OK where it is. But the What's New should then be "sticky expanded," not Forums.
In other words, whatever heading it's under should remain expanded after you click New Posts.

Ok, I'll try to make that happen

New (but related) weirdness ... I'll try to describe it clearly.
This morning, under Forums, Unread Posts had disappeared.
That's why I started using New Posts under What's New.
Now Unread Posts has reappeared under Forums.
When I click it, it opens up What's New in the left sidebar instead of Forums.
So New Posts under What's New and New Posts under Forums are somehow interfering with each other.
It's not a deal-breaker, it's just odd behavior.

That's cause I'm still working on it.

Oops ... sorry
