Clicking on the “New” button in the main navigation shows no new topics if clicked from a tag page, e.g.,
/tags/pr-welcome/
and navigates to /tags/pr-welcome/l/new
instead of /new
I can understand why it might be useful to have this behavior of the button on tags, however showing the unread count and an empty results page without any hints on why can be misleading.
The issue here is that we should filter new count by tag. The tricky thing though is that the client does not have an internal map of tags on each topic a user is actively tracking. This is not easy to change.
