Hello!
I successfully migrated my forum from phpBB to Flarum, but I'm running into an issue responding to my users' requests.
They wanted to recreate a similar experience to phpBB, so I installed the Categories extension and set it as the main page. However, the big issue is that there is no way to tell whether a category contains unread posts: all categories share the same font weight, and there is no visual indicator (e.g. a colored dot or bold title) in front of category names to help identify where new content is waiting to be read.
As a workaround, I added a "Latest discussions" link (/all?sort=latest) which points to a page that behaves more like what my users expect — but ideally I'd like the Categories homepage itself to surface this information.
Is there an extension, a theme override, or a CSS/JS workaround that would add unread indicators to the Categories view?
Thanks in advance!
