Hi folks - I’m sticking this in support rather than features because I’m not sure what the state of play is with it…

At the ‘all categories’ level, refreshing for new material is dealt with very well, with the tab alert and with the blue ‘new stuff’ bar at the head of the topic list.

Individual threads also update very neatly for new posts.

But as far as I can see, at the individual category level, the notification button is the only thing that gets refreshed when there’s new content. There doesn’t seem to be a tab alert or a ‘new stuff’ bar.

Am I missing something? Or needing to switch some settings? Or is this current behaviour and needs to be a feature request? ☀
