Forum Notification Quirk
Google/translate3Thank You!1Good Post!2Bad Post! link
When someone posts on the forums a notification shows up next to 'Forum' in the header. Ordinarily, you can click 'Forum' and quickly find the new post under 'Latest Activities'. When you solve a challenge, a new thread opens up-- the 'solved' thread for that challenge. The notification shows up next to 'Forum' but the newly available solved thread does not show up in 'Latest Activities', meaning you have to dig around in the forums to find the thread and make the little notification go away. It would be nice if those 'newly solved' threads would show up under 'Latest Activities'.

Thanks for your feedback!

I already noticed that it`s hard to find the solution board for a challenge.
On my localhost i added a message when the challenge is solved, also there is the book icon for the challenges, so you can quickly jump to the right board.

I have added this on todo anyway, because new forum threads thingy is a general problem with "hidden" threads.
The geeks shall inherit the properties and methods of object earth.

Yeah, I understand. 'Hidden' threads aren't really new. They could be quite old. They are just new to the user who just solved some particular challenge, so the ordinary new post mechanisms aren't going to work reliably.
