As designed Sometimes read threads still appear in the "new posts" list

[M@rc]

Affected version

2.0

It's been happening every now and then for a while now when I click the "new posts" link from the sub navigation menu and click on a thread, then click the "new posts" link again.

See the screenshot below :




The first thread should not appear in the list, yet it does. It doesn't have the bold font styling either and it clearly has the "unread" tag marked to "show only". Of course, clicking "new posts" later on makes things normal again.

This is intentional - the what's new results are cached and persisted for a period of time. We could look at turning this down (or off), as it mostly benefits guests, but IIRC we already turned it down to 5 seconds. So you're being pretty quick!
