Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted January 29Jan 29 I’m trying to figure understand the purpose of the white unread dots that just started appearing in place of some blue unread dots. I think it might mean that it takes you to the first post in the topic even if you had already read previously that topic but it now might have new unread replies. But, this makes no sense to me. I always want to jump to the first unread reply. As it is now, I seem to get a mixture of white and blue unread dots and some of the white dots were previously viewed before. BTW, I use Dark mode so the new dots are white for me.
January 29Jan 29 Author Just noticed the mix of dot colors is only when viewing in condensed mode. When viewing in expanded mode, all dots seem to be blue and honor the “go to first unread post” setting. Maybe this is just a bug in condensed view?

However if you want the main link to do the same you can change it from your account settings

The condensed view is showing both white and blue unread dots with no rhyme or rhythm as to why I’m seeing both in the same list. I have always had the account settings to go to the first unread post. @Marc So, why both white and blue dots in the condensed view and only blue dots in the expanded view?
January 29Jan 29 This may be a CSS issue in Fluid mode when there is a forum color used. I have reported this internally.

It is only wrong for colored forums.When you fix this, can you also fix the difference forum positions in the condensed view and the expanded view.I think the only thing that should be different between both views is the expanded view has the topic blurb.I like the look of the forum link to the left, but then it is hard to tap that link on mobile. I’d make these forum links inactive and just have one way to filter the list. Edited January 29Jan 29 by KT Walrus

From my point of view, once I’ve let you know there is an issue, my role ends. I’ve let you know, and now it is up to you as to whether this is something you will fix or not. I didn’t really appreciate your requesting that I spend more time reposting in another forum. I don’t work for you.
