This is very new (today ?) here on meta. I have a few topics in “latest” which have a blue number of unread messages (it was only for 1 message I believe), and I don’t see why. I wasn’t mentioned, and the topic is in “normal” mode. Not watched, not tracked. I believe it was topics I even never opene…

It is tricky to debug this without knowing the topic that was causing the issue. If you notice the issue again, can you try to make a note of which topics it’s happening on? Based on your settings on Discourse, you should see a blue dot after the title on the Latest list for topics that were create…

This one: Could Discourse offer a StackExchange-like SSO/Federated login service? and this one: WordPress comments are showing were showing “1 unread” message. This was just before I created this topic we’re in. Not sure what was happening on the “blue dot” front, as I didn’t pay too much attention…

I just got another topic showing 1 unread message (blue number) when that shouldn’t have happened (or I don’t understand why). This one: Email for specific category It’s really not happening frequently. Just once in a while. It seems it always only shows 1 unread message (I’m not sure yet about that…

I occasionally get this. I found this topic after it happened again (blue disc number on “normal” and I think previously-unseen topic) and searching to find out what the numbers are really meant to represent.

[Bild] Jonathan5: searching to find out what the numbers are really meant to represent It seems to be a bug (it represents “unread” messages, but you’re not even tracking or watching these topics ! You often didn’t even ever enter them). Now, it’s the same for me: It’s quite “occasional”. It …

[Bild] Mevo: it represents “unread” messages Here is a post I bookmarked yesterday. The blue circle is “new” and the grey one is “unread”: [Bild] How does the notifications menu work? Grey means unread but not new. Posts you could have read the last time you were in the topic, but chose n…

But here’s something from meta which calls the blue disc numbers “unread” (the number 1 is in a blue disc): Your unread topics appear here. By default, topics are considered unread and will show unread counts 1 if you: Created the topic Replied to the topic Read the topic for more than 4 minute…

There is something else, which seems totally unrelated, but somehow close: I see these past few days a big number of unread messages on some topics I am following (watching). These blue circles are on topics I am indeed following, not like the bug described above. The number of “unread posts” is fa…

Yes, the count will be off when there are deletions.

Wouldn’t it be worth to fix this one day ? Taking care of the “unread” count when deletions happen. Your answer seems to imply that no :confused: The current functioning makes it very obvious there was a massive deletion, and is a little weird (you get notified you have x posts to read, when you’ve…

Wie ich das sehe: Wenn Leute darauf bestehen, Verkehrsschilder zu ignorieren, lass dich nicht überraschen, wenn du in einen Lkw fährst.
