I know what the regular square and pulsing icon in the left column indicate. (pulsing icon means some posts unread) But there are a couple of new ones that I have not figured out yet. Help?

The ones with a small (very small) dot in the lower right corner indicate a thread in which you have posted. This is one of those little tweaks I've still yet to work out. But I'll probably get them changed to the ordinary icons in the next few weeks.

Actually, I like the new icons and would prefer them kept the way they are. I like knowing at a glance which topics I have previously posted in, as I think it makes it easier to follow . . . especially for anyone (like myself) who does not want to 'subscribe' to topics.

Then, too, that means less work for you, Caith! :yes:

On the index page: The moving rectangle is unread posts
The stationary square is no unread posts
The square with the lock is locked
(See the bottom of the index page)

On the Forum Pages: The stationary boxes are read post
The rotating boxes are unread
The boxes with a lock in the middle are locked
(Again see bottom of the page)

Other symbols on the Forum page: The while box means you posted to this topic
White box with lock means you have posted but topic is now locked
The little white box on the far right that looks like a sheet of paper with a
corner folded takes you directly to that post.

I was confused by some of the symbols also.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Leeza. I was beginning to decode these various icons, but you helped.

Hugs,
