"New" tag still appears in the "Bookmarked Discussions" sidebar

After using the plugin to mark all discussions as viewed, if I then bookmark a discussion, the "New" tag appears in the "Bookmarked Discussions" sidebar. Is this accidental?

I haven't confirmed whether or not this is a theme-based issue (not sure if all themes include the "new" tag in the sidebar) or whether it works for all types of user, but thought I should mention it.

    A little more info - this doesn't occur with Announcements, and subsequently clicking "Mark All Viewed" removes the sidebar tag from the discussions bookmarked since the previous click. However, subsequent bookmarks display the same behaviour - i.e. they retain the "new" tag in the Bookmark sidebar if they haven't actually been viewed.

    Does the same happen with 2.0.17.8 on an upgraded / fresh install?

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

    Same behaviour on 2.0.17.8 - I assumed the problem was with the plugin rather than the main installation version ( @Lincoln ). Checking again, I think I've mischaracterized the bug - whether or not an a discussion is an announcement or not doesn't seem to matter. It's just the first discussion you decide to bookmark/follow after clicking the "Mark All Viewed" doesn't show the "New Tag" - announcement or otherwise. Thereafter, the bug is visible.

    It's worth noting that this isn't a but that would be noticed in the usual run of things, since one would tend to bookmark a discussion only after reading it.
