Notification for new topic by mail shows replied icon, a new icon would be more logical

Case:

  • (not sure if this matters) TL0 user sends mail to category, creating a new topic
  • I am watching that category, so I get a notification

Expected:

  • The notification shows some kind of new topic icon

But result was:

  • The notification shows the replied icon

Is there a new topic icon?

I doubt both of these were submitted by email…

I guess not. But if you hover over those, they say replied which is not true.

É, não discordo, é só uma daquelas coisas… não tenho certeza se é um bug, mas talvez seja uma questão de UX, já que não me recordo de ter havido um ícone exclusivo para isso antes.

Na verdade, acabei de verificar que na versão 1.5.0 beta6 não há um ícone exclusivo para “novo tópico”, então tenho a sensação de que isso se encaixa mais em Contribute > UX do que em Contribute > Bug.

I agree and changed the category.

I was afraid there was some issues with the underlying notification type, but it turns out it was only a bad translation :relieved:

I didn’t change the icon because I couldn’t find one that made sense, but feel free to customise this translation on your instance :wink:

What about fa-asterisk or fa-star?
