This is affecting me heavily on WTDWTF; when I click on a topic that has updates on the topic list, I frequently am taken to a post that is dozens, hundreds, or in one case a thousand posts higher than the actual new post I was trying to reach. This seems to be triggered by visiting the full-page search results; I think it’s setting the unread marker to where the search result was.

One of our users managed to trigger the behavior as follows:

1. Open the search bar
2. Type a phrase that appears somewhere far up the topic than your latest read position.
3. Click “show more”
4. Look at the URL for the topic in question
5. Click the site logo to return to the “latest” list.  
6, Look at the URL for the topic in question

Expected: Should point to the last read position, or the last post in the thread if all are read  
Actual: Points to the same URL noted in step 4.
