Forum Odd Behavior
I've noticed that when I open the Forum Page which lists all the Forums, none of the Forums show unread Topics.  However, if I open a Forum I'll see all the unread Topics (red flag) or if I open the New Posts, I'll also see the unread Topics.  Has anyone else experienced this?

I think that's the way it's supposed to work. Opening the Forum page only show a list of the forums. Opening the forum shows all topics including those unread.

For whatever reason, the Forum is displaying unread posts like before my post.  So at the end of the day, all is well in River City.  Thank you for the follow-up.

Ed,

In Forum view, the forum list will indicate new posts since the last time you opened that forum.  It does not indicate if there are unread posts.

When you go to the list of forums, it should show the "bubble" in a darker shade if there are new posts since your last visit to that forum.  If you visit a forum, even without opening any unread topics, and then go back to Forum View and there aren't any new posts since you last opened that forum (a few seconds ago), you'll no longer since the "new posts" indicator.

HTH
