Hallo,
is there a possibility to mark forums with new posts since the last visit? maybe change title color oder icon color in the normal forum view.
here is a example from an other forum script (mybb). is this makeable in wpforo?
sorry for my bad english ...
Hi Maule
wpForo already has read/unread indicator and it displays bold/normal titles of forums and topics. This feature has been added in 1.4.1 version: https://wpforo.com/community/wpforo-announcements/wpforo-1-4-1-is-released/
However this feature only checks if the forum or topic has been visited by current user or not. If you visit any topic the title becomes normal. It'll not be changed back to bold once a new reply is posted. Same with forums.
In other words wpForo forum/topic title indicators are based on read/unread logic. It doesn't have new content detector logic yet. This is already in our to-do list and we'll make it available in near future releases. At the moment there is no option to enable this function. We'll use either forum icons or the standard bold/normal title.
Ok. Then i have to wait some time for this option.
Thank you for the fast answer 🙂
Yes, this is something that bugs me a lot. I would love to have this feature. One of the only things I really miss in wpForo.
Do you know how long we will approximately need to wait until the release? This is a big point for me and I am actually thinking about switching to another system because the read/unread feature is quite important.
If it will be updated in the next months (and moves away from cookies to an actual database solution), I would love to stay with wpForo as I am quite happy with almost everything else.
