<p>It would be nice if Redmine kept track of the timestamp when you last looked at a thread or issue. Then, when showing lists of issues or threads (eg. the Issues and Forums) pages it could annotate the title with an "updated" or "new" tag to show which issues/threads have been updated or created since you last looked at them.</p>
<p>An example of this feature is provided by Drupal. If you have an account and go to <a class="external" href="http://drupal.org/project/issues/views">http://drupal.org/project/issues/views</a> you can see which items are new and updated (to see the updated tag you need to look at an issue and wait for someone to update it). Drupal also shows the number of new posts and when you click on that link it opens the issue at the first new post. It also tags the new posts with a new keyword to indicate which ones are new.</p>
<p>I've attached screenshots to illustrate the two concepts.</p> Redmine - Feature #2677: Show "unread" items in the issue listhttps://www.redmine.org/issues/2677?journal_id=131882009-12-22T20:50:24ZJean-Philippe Langjp_lang@yahoo.fr

<ul></ul><p>The patch is not ready for review, but it should not conflict with anything.<br />What's your major patch about?</p> Redmine - Feature #2677: Show "unread" items in the issue listhttps://www.redmine.org/issues/2677?journal_id=131952009-12-23T09:18:43ZOlivier Jacquet
<ul></ul><p>Personally I'd prefer if the bullets were at the end of the title in stead of before. As the bullets are now they break the flow of the page. The fact that it is bold already shows that it's either new or updated, if you want to know which you can look at the bullet.</p>
<p>Also, the choice of small coloured bullets can make it hard for people that have trouble seeing colours to see if it's new or updated. Could you try putting new or updated in superscript at the end of the title to see the difference?</p> Redmine - Feature #2677: Show "unread" items in the issue listhttps://www.redmine.org/issues/2677?journal_id=131962009-12-23T09:25:47ZFelix Schäfer

<p>I agree with the breaking the flow part, but not with the consequence… What about indenting the subject line for not-updated issues so that they are at the same level than the others?</p>

<p>I'll argue about the consequence here too :-) I think it should stay a visual rather than a textual cue… What about different colors and shapes?

<p>I definitely prefer the visual hint too. It's pretty commom in email clients for example.<br />Maybe we can have a green bullet for new issues and nothing for updated issues (just bold subject):</p>

<p>I think I'd prefer having the boldness for making the changed/new issues stand out, and different bullet colors/shapes to differentiate changed and new, but I think that's more a matter of taste, and I suppose is configurable through a custom css. Other than that, UI looks good to me.</p> Redmine - Feature #2677: Show "unread" items in the issue listhttps://www.redmine.org/issues/2677?journal_id=135192010-01-12T08:51:19ZNikolay Kotlyarov

<ul></ul><p>I think we have to clarify what the request of this Feature is in Detail.</p>
If the request is that <strong>unread items in the issues list(s)</strong> shall be highlighted, then:
<ul>
<li>the description of this issue fully describes the required functionality</li>
<li>this is NOT a duplicate of <a class="issue tracker-2 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Feature: Show updated & new status on issues and forum threads (Closed)" href="https://www.redmine.org/issues/3509">#3509</a> or <a class="issue tracker-2 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Feature: Read/unread status for issues and forum posts (Closed)" href="https://www.redmine.org/issues/4466">#4466</a> because those issues also request that Forum threads/entries shall be highlighted.</li>
<li>the Images attached by Jean-Philippe Lang Show the requested functionality</li>
<li>the plugin mentioned by Egidijus Zideckas fulfills this request</li>
</ul>
Whereas, if the request is that <strong>unread items in the issues list(s) and unread Forum threads/entries</strong> shall be highlighted, then:
<ul>
<li>the description of this issue does not fully describe the required functionality</li>
<li>this IS a duplicate of <a class="issue tracker-2 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Feature: Show updated & new status on issues and forum threads (Closed)" href="https://www.redmine.org/issues/3509">#3509</a> and <a class="issue tracker-2 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Feature: Read/unread status for issues and forum posts (Closed)" href="https://www.redmine.org/issues/4466">#4466</a>.</li>
<li>the Images attached by Jean-Philippe Lang do not fully the requested functionality</li>
<li>the plugin mentioned by Egidijus Zideckas does not fully fulfill this request</li>
</ul>

<p>We've taken the plugin described <a href="https://www.redmine.org/plugins/unread_issues" title="unread_issues" class="external">here</a>. There are some repositories with this plugin on github.com by the way (i.e. <a class="external" href="https://github.com/tdvsdv/unread_issues">https://github.com/tdvsdv/unread_issues</a>).</p>
<p>I had to modify it to meet our needs, but haven't yet published it to github.<br />The versions on github seem to support even redmine 3.x.</p>
