Rabone Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 What does this Icon mean? The IPB part? I realize it has something to do with new posts in that section, but I cannot find a reference to it anywhere. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akdrv Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 IPB means Invision Power Board. It's the forum software that we use. This icon is used in the defualt skin/theme, other skins/themes use different icons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you see it with the little tick mark on the bottom right means new posts in this area, and a ghosted icon means nothing new? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabone Posted June 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 No, that cannot be correct, as I have been in the Numismatic Books area, and it is showing a complete icon with the initals IPB. So just how does this morphing icon work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akdrv Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 When the icon is solid it means that there are unread posts in that forum. When it's faded out it means that there is nothing new. Sometimes the icon stays on for a short time after you visited a forum. I use "View New Posts" link on top of the page instead of relying on icons.

bobbycoin Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I belive that when the dark blue icon with "IPB" on it shows there are new posts in that forum The one with the little tick Rabone described I believe indicates there is a new message in a forum within that forum. For example if there was only one new post and it was in the Virtual Coin Museum, The Coin Forum would have the blue icon with the tick. I hope that made sense. -Bobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
