confused about "Unread Content"


Recommended Posts

Even after I applied "content types: topic", the result isn't what I wanted....I think when members click Unread content, most of the time they want to see new topic in the community not others replies. (yes, my website is just a forum so no download, product review or other stuff) Anyone knows to how to fix this or it's what IPS intended to be? Thanks!!

ps: forgive me if I posted in the wrong sub-forum, I was struggling among these categories ( here, Product Guidance, Client Lounge and General Chit Chat...)

Unread Content means new items and new comments/reviews, in your case, topics and posts. 

Create a new stream and set only topics and choose Content items only in Show me then set it as default stream. 

Doing this your members won’t know when their topics have replies (posts), unless they follow the topics or browse the forum constantly. 

Not a good idea. 

My advice: you should leave the Unread Content as default, which shows everything, and create streams per type and another for the members (in Ownership choose Content I started).

I'm sorry, even if you set "Topic" and choose Content items only, it will still showing all the replies and Topics.

No need to start a new stream, You can just edit the Unread Content, its same thing as what I have done in the original post

There is a stream called "Content I started", click that button, you can see all the new replies to your topic so this won't be a problem.
