Folders not reflecting that there are "new" posts in them. - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

.....specifically, in the 12-step forum, a LOT of the time, someone will post something up in one of the step-specific sections and I don't know those posts are there. Once in a while there's an icon indicating new posts....but it's not consistent at all.

Another issue seems to be that I can hop into a forum, like the 12-step forum, and there might be 5 new threads - and they're all in bold showing me there are new posts/threads I haven't seen yet. I click on one and read it...then I click on the "12 step" link above the thread i'm on (or maybe it's if/when I use the "back" button) and wham-o.....no more bold print and I have to just know that the top 4 or 5 threads have new stuff in them.

In a area like the newcomers sections this is a big deal because I miss TONS of new posts that I would have like to have weighed in on.....or maybe had some advice that may have been beneficial

I know this subject has been raised before but I thought I'd do it again as it's still present. Maybe it's just a board upgrade that needs to be implemented as I'm on several other message boards and unread threads NEVER indicate they've been read UNTIL you actually click on the thread.

Try clicking on the link to mark all forums read and see if it resets it.

You can also click on the new posts link on the top navigation bar and find new posts there.

It did the same to me with the link I posted, but it worked when I clicked on the link on the bottom of the main forum page. Try it there.
