I Know This Is A Stupid Question,,

Yes I know its a stupid question,but;

What do all the different coloured boxes mean in the topics list, blue, white etc and why do some graduate in colour, and why do some have a little square in the corner?


Yours Apologetically

If you hover your mouse over the icons for a few seconds, a pop-up will tell you the status of that thread/forum (no new posts, lots of new posts, new posts, etc.).

Interesting mine doesnt do that,

This isn't all the combinations but will give you an idea

means a topic you have contributed to, but has no new posts

ditto but one you haven't contributed to

means a topic with unread posts (and is "hot" not sure what defines hot though, number of views or posts?)

ditto but not a "hot" topic

sticky topic, no new posts

sticky topic which you have contributed to, no new posts

sticky topic with new posts

means a "hot" topic with unread posts,that you have contributed to

So basically -

greyed - no new posts
coloured - new posts and either a normal or hot topic
little square top right - a topic you have contributed to, if it's green there are unread posts
