If this is another extensions request, why do you bump it here instead of creating an extension request? :P
Not that I mind bumping my extension topics... :geek:

It isn't that easily done, there is no class attribute for edited posts, so it would be a bit more work.
If you have a specific extension request and you are willing to pay for, you can write me a PM.

Hi. I like the look of this. I was wondering, what has stopped this being released and validated?
Ive noticed a lot of advice around not to put a BETA extension onto a live board.

I have this on my board and seem not to have any trouble.

Nothing has stopped it other than me. I haven't submitted any of my extensions until now. I was, and I even am new to extension. I learn something everyday, improve my coding style, find better ways, etc. So I don't want to put non-optimized and confusing code to the CDB.
In time, I'll rework some of my extensions and submit them all.

Until then, using them on a live board is at your own risk. Of course there are advices around not using them, cause no one officially checked them for propblems or even security issues for example.
I don't think though that there is any problem with it here, and I would try to do my best if there are problems, but ye... no one can prove that.

Ye, I thought about that already. Maybe it would be good to expand this extension to match all unread things.
Even though all of that should or could be done with styles.
If you have a specific extension request and you are willing to pay for, you can write me a PM.

Thank you for your reply. I wasn't sure whether there were any issues there had halted it.
Since seeing others are using it I placed it onto my board and it works like a charm.
I will definitely keep an eye out for any updates.

Thank you!

So this extension is mostly for those people that don't want to edit their style at all.
May i ask how that would look like. Is it something as simple as for an example adding :unread after an class or an id?

You can look at the code of my extension here.
The part for adding the simple green color to unread posts in prosilver is here:
highlightunreadposts.css (prosilver)

See, just two simple css statements. That's all you need.
