Clicking the moved post(s) notification initially dismisses it and loads the linked staff post…  
… but if you reload the page - the notification is still there highlighted in blue.

This has come up before, and I think there was a fix attempted, but I guess it wasn’t enough? Or the other report is still open.

It has been this way for as long as I remember.  
We have ver. 1.2.0.beta4 so unless it’s been fixed another way since, the current way to clear the Move Notifications is to use  
“Mark all as Read”

There was a report of this back in August '14:

[https://meta.discourse.org/t/notifications-not-clearing-properly-unless-visited-from-menu/19041/7?u=adamcapriola](https://meta.discourse.org/t/notifications-not-clearing-properly-unless-visited-from-menu/19041/7)

Didn’t exactly have its own topic though.

@sam I think you fixed this with the recent changes to notifications? I can’t repro on development.

Are these all you?? @sam\_saffron\_soc @sam\_saffron\_ame

Pretty sure this is still a bug. Not high priority, but there.

Nope, this is no longer a bug, I fixed this and every other instance where blue does not clear.

We set a header on the next ajax call to clear it AND a cookie, so yeah … stuff will clear … always.
