XF 2.2 Highlight New Conversations

[DaveM]

It seems we have an ongoing issue with members just not seeing that they have unread conversations waiting in their in-box. This causes a bit of an issue with important forum business that might need to be communicated with memebrs.

So I am looking for a way to better present the fact that a member has a conversation waiting to be read. Something that is really in your face and you just cannot miss.

Unread DMs have emboldened titles.

If you want to add further styling, you can use the structItem--conversation is-unread class in the `extra.less' template.

@Paul B Thanks I tried that and it did not seem to do much and now looks like this.



My extra.less now looks like this

I have an idea, I’ll see if I can come up with something asap.

You need to prefix with periods - .structItem--conversation .is-unread when using classes.

That would be great as I see this has been mentioned a few times by others before.

Thanks Paul I will give that a go when I am back at the computer.
