  • Find all mention of cheese in "idkfa" for a set of users: item:idkfa,user:somebody,user:nobody,cheese
  • Only the "roots" of threads, not the replies: is:root
  • Find comments mentioning both cheese and crackers in the last five days: last:5d,cheese,crackers
  • Find comments mentioning either cheese or crackers: cheese+crackers
  • The item, user, and last prefixes can be negated, for example, posts older than 5 days, not in "idkfa": -last:5d,-item:idkfa
  • All posts in direct reply to your comments, excluding when you replied to yourself: inreplyto:me,-user:me
  • All posts in reply to threads that you've started (but not necessarily in reply to you): threadreplyto:me,-user:me

Random thought/idea: So say I see that there's 3 new posts that I haven't read in Mercy General.  I click on one of them and they all happen to be in the same thread, but since I

(nods) Yeah, I know what you mean. I've entertained the idea, but there's sort of an "order of operations" problem. When I'm rendering a page, I have a choice to

Could you make it so it only looks at the history if being called from the Unread screen?  Not sure if that would really help or not though.

kaiden in idkfa, about +13Y ago:
Maybe, though, the case where they can get to a thread without coming to it from the "unread" screen is possible, and fairly common (Searching, Item View, Latest Posts,

Side thought: Don't you two work in the same building? This reminds me of IMing someone who sits right next to you.  Only the 1990s BBS version.

Our cubicle area is home to people who also have opinions on coding, and like to interject them, and then turn them into loud conversations about football and bigotry. This is much less

In all fairness, it was a bit of a cheap shot.  I'm sorry for punching you in the internet testicles. I suppose, when you're surrounded by quasi-nerds who love football, the best

It was a bit of a pain in the ass, but now when a thread detects that a message is unread (or was unread just before it was displayed), it will mark it with a slightly different color than the

It's a lovely shade of green, thanks for your hard work.  Take the rest of the day off.

Good job! You win. You should make it so we can set the color.

I had an issue with "classic view." I made the change in this thread with full view in mind, assuming that all IDs passed through the maintenance function would be marked as read.

kaiden in idkfa, about +13Y ago:
I've also updated the "streaming" page to indicate which of the threads/post are unread. It's... actually pretty cool, being able to scroll through a bunch of posts and see which

And for completeness, I've updated the Item pages to reflect seen/unseen coloring upon page render. It looks pretty good, I think. Not only shows thread topic, thread structure, and

Good job all around really.  I did enjoy the pimento green, but the orange isn't so bad either.
