Hey All!
I just wanted to let you all know that earlier this week, we resolved this issue! You should once again see the title of posts that you have not read show up in a bold font!
As always, thank you again for your patience.

Evan, it's not resolved. None of the forums I regularly read show any change in the topic titles; they all remain in bold type even after I click on "Mark all as read".
We really need the title to stop being in bold type if there are no new replies to that topic, so we don't waste a bunch of time and clicks just to see it's the same old same old.
We also need the system to automatically take us to the newest reply in that topic, rather than make us scroll and scroll, looking for the last one we read. The old format did that for us and it was wonderful.
Please help out us old coots, so we don't get so frustrated that we give up and leave.
its still only half working, brand new topics and thoes that have replys to the main thread show up highlighted, but older posts with replys to different replies to the main topic don't show up as highlighted.
and they are not working again anywhere but in the comunity feed back forum..
Thank you! As a daily visitor to the site, I appreciate being able to see what is read and not read. I like to view my thread posts from oldest to newest, when someone posts on an old thread is there a way to go directly to the newest post without clicking on load more posts and scrolling over and over? Thanks again!
Hey MORSNOW,
Great question. Here is my first thought. Let's say you see a post with a new reply to a post from 2019. You're currently set to view old to new, so the reply you see is most likely from 2019 and you don't want to scroll through several pages of replies to see the latest reply. I suggest you flip your reply view to "Newest to Oldest" before you start scrolling. This should reload the replies so that you can see the newest first. The only issue I could foresee is once you exit the page, you might have to change it back for the next post you read.
Let me know if this works for you.
doesnt quite work that way if the new reply from today is to a post in the middle of the conversation as the new board attaches replys to coments at the coments level as a sub comment. so basicly you have to search for it if it isn't a new reply to the main topic.
