I did a bit of browsing for this, but I’m new to this forum and I’m not sure of the correct terminology, so I’m going to just ask:

Currently in this forum and the Discourse hosted forum I use most frequently ([SketchUp](http://forums.sketchup.com)) the number of new or updated posts since I last refreshed the window appears both as a number in the browser tab and as a blue tinged warning at the top of the topic list.

Is there any way to make the number in the browser tab the same as the number of pending notifications - the one shown at the top right of your avatar?

If so, is it something set globally by the Discourse administrators or something that can be set individually by the user.

If not, what’s the best way to make it an “official” feature request?

Thanks!
