Problem with read threads not changing colour...

Ok MN, so now you've fixed the problem with bookmarking Grin. For some time now, when I've read a thread, it temporarily changes colour, to show I've read it, then will change back to 'unread colour' at some point and then I'm reading a thread again that I'm not interested in because the title wasn't memorable enough for me to remember. First world problem, I know.... I'm using Chrome on laptop.

Hello, sorry! Was checking this one with Tech and failed to post to say it's on our radar Hmm

Once we've heard from tech as to what's happening here we'll post again, thanks!

Threads change colour once they're read?. I never knew that!

Aridane · 12/10/2017 15:47

oh yes - so they do Blush

This is still happening- happened again for me this afternoon and it's really annoying! (As in the problem where all the threads you're watching and on show as being white when there are no new posts).

Hi folks,

So we're trying to get to the bottom of this and the tech team think that this only happens in private browsing! Is this the case for you, OP? Are you using private browsing?

Not as far as I know anyhoo.... how would I tell if I was in private browsing mode please?

Chaosofcalm · 23/12/2017 07:47

I also have this issue. No private browser. I am using safari.

Panda81 · 31/12/2017 15:09

I've always had this issue for as long as I've had the app (about a year). I hoped it would have been fixed by now

blaaake · 31/12/2017 15:12

It only changes back to original colour when there has been a new post on the thread for me

OlympicBonfire · 03/01/2018 23:35

This has started happening for me in the last couple of days. Not all threads though - frustratingly only some

Panda81 · 16/01/2018 13:56

It's just reset all my threads again for me in the past hour or so. Even though there are no new posts on many of them.
