Make the notifications count persistent, like on Github

Hey everybody,

I really like the way Github handles notifications: You click on the notifications icon :bell: and get a list of notifications. However the :red_circle: stays until you’ve read or dismissed all notifications.

In contrast, when I click on the notification count in Discourse, the :four: / :nine: / etc. disappears at once. When I click on one of the notifications, the notification count is gone, and I might miss notifications that are buried in the “view older notifications…” screen.

What do you think? Can this behaviour be improved?

I think the idea behind removing the count of notifications is that we don’t want to force you to click on EVERY notification to decrease the count all the way to zero to get it to disappear again.

You still shouldn’t miss any notifications because anything pending should still be highlighted in the notification dropdown and on the “view older notifications…” page.

I don’t see the problem here. Does it annoy people to see the
notification count?

They are, but: Given the situation that the whole list is highlighted
(more than X notifications). When I have gone through the whole list and
no notifications are highlighted in the dropdown anymore: Are there
still unread notifications? I don’t actually know until I click the
“view older notifications…”-button. Sometimes there will be further
notifications highlighted, sometimes there won’t. Since the count is
gone, I can’t tell beforehand.

我真希望用户设置中有一个选项，可以选择通知计数是否消失。在我的例子中，我希望它是持久的，即只要有任何未读通知就显示出来。

我明白你的意思，但我们再等等吧，我们正在对通知菜单进行一次大的重构，以便更好地在每个部分中调用通知。

@Osama 一旦我们准备好进行一些 Beta 测试反馈，就会在这里发布。

只是在这里插一句，我也刚收到一个关于持久化通知的用户请求。
