(Yes, I searched) After updating to beta8, all posts now show as “unread”, even though they were all read. Clicking on one and reading it again makes no difference. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks, D

Works perfectly fine if I go to safe mode.

Then you have a theme or plugin that is causing the problem.

And yet Discourse has worked perfectly fine for 3 years, updating to every new beta, until this particular beta? It does seem to be an unofficial plugin and we only have one ( discourse-topic-list-previews) Sigh

It’s also broken in the Ghost theme now. Should be caused by Modernizing our Topic List HTML - preparing themes, components and plugins.

Is there a way to downgrade so we can go back to the previous version?

It’s already a know issue at Topic List Previews (legacy) - #1558 by raghukamath @gigperformer. [image] gigperformer: Is there a way to downgrade so we can go back to the previous version? No, there is no support for downgrade.

[image] Falco: already a know issue OK - does that mean that discourse will be “fixed” (or a workaround provided) to address this issue?

The third party plugin maintainers are aware of it and should be fixing it eventually. Better take it to their topic at Topic List Previews (legacy).

OK - that plugin is deprecated - there’s now a theme component one is supposed to use.

After updating to 2.8.0.beta8, nothing shows as "read" anymore

Strange. Can you see if the problem persists in safe mode (How to use Discourse Safe Mode)
