Bug reports / Re: Reply post showing as 'New'

I'm not entirely sure about that.

It's maintaining what amounts to a preference and is not personally identifiable. There are exceptions in the PECR for such things, though it's incredibly vague.

I suppose if you've got the front page that tells you about new topics, it's probably OK not to display the board index's new boards across platforms...

I think it's worth experimentation.

It would really help if we knew people in these areas to be able to judge what's right.

It's no big deal to add these extra items in, though ;)

Take the one you mentioned and rename one or the other of the strings so that there isn't a clash.

Well, redirect boards normally have a different icon for that reason ;)

Perhaps in hindsight we should alter redirect boards to actually indicate they are redirect boards through the board type column ;)

I haven't got any read/unread boards to do a comparison on here.

If it's commitable, commit it because if we decide we don't like it we can always change it later, the joys of version control :)

And yes that does solve my larger concern - as long as themers can easily change it, great :)

- Remove the small icons altogether.
No problem with that.

- If board is read, apply an opacity of 0.5 to that icon, to make it look like it's a dimmed down version of the icon.
- Makes it easy to replace a board icon with a media item thumbnail.
My issue with that is with themes that want to use a different icon entirely, I'd personally quite like that option.

- Don't show a legend (at all). Instead, show a clear 'NEW' or 'REDIRECT' note (using the note class or a child) next to the board name.
Works for me, and is the sort of thing I was asking about ;)

The timezones shown by others are pretty much the same list ;)

Which is great until you happen to use another device or computer for checking your forum, e.g. mobile phone vs desktop (and yes it does happen - even you do it ;))

Yes, that's the only feature I'd actually appreciate in Git itself... ;)

Interesting view - and precisely why I wanted to bring the debate about... is it necessary? Does the board index as a whole deserve some UI love?
2997
They're there. Go to the front page - then click on 'Board Index'.

The very front page here is not a stock Wedge one.

This is something that's annoyed me a bit about SMF in the past, curious to know what people think.

At the foot of the board index, you get icons indicating whether a board has new posts, no new posts or is a redirect board.

Even if you don't have any redirect boards, it still shows up. I figure it should hide that if there's no redirect boards. It's a trivial enough matter to do since we'll know by that point if we've had any redirect boards.

Thoughts?

Does this still occur?
