Fixed Read / unread state missing from conversations, and threads in API

[Jake B.]

Affected version

2.1.11

Conversations and threads don't appear to output a read state by default

I use this:

Conversation Read Checkmark 2.0.0​

Shows a checkmark for users that have read a conversation
Developer: Snog

It works well

I presume this is referring to the API.

At this point, it's probably worth checking against 2.2. In this case, this was something we specifically highlighted as being exposed in 2.2 with our API additions: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/a-few-more-things.183091/

I'll leave this open though, as it looks like we don't actually expose is_unread for conversations even though it's essentially trivial. We could potentially expose unread state for individual posts and conversation messages as well (or just expose the last read date which effectively gives that information).

Yeah, thought i put it in the title apparently didn't

Thank you for reporting this issue, it has now been resolved. We are aiming to include any changes that have been made in a future XF release (2.2.1).
