The yellow stickers seem to be correct.

I wonder if we're being faked out by the browser cache. That is, if you visit the same thread via an unread link, the browser may assume it can show a previously cached version of that link even though it's actually changed. Clearing the browser cache and re-clicking the link would verify or refute this possibility.

I just noticed, if I go through Notifications, I get the correct message. If I look at the thread list and pick one marked unread, I see the problem.

Just emptied my cache (Firefox 48.0.2) and ... so far, so good!

Excellent, I've added a hint to the browser so it won't cache the result for threads. :)

Cleared browser cache and all seems to be working properly again.

Today so far it all seems to be fixed. This is the first time in a while that everything has worked correctly.

Hi Everyone:

I've been having this problem lately with one thread. I partially emptied my cache and hesitate to tick off every box. Are there additional ones that I should include? Checking the two boxes you see now shows the correct stickies for threads where I've posted but puts me on the first post of each. When I select the most recent post in that thread, close the thread and return to it, I still am directed to the first post.

For this particular thread, only "Cached images and files" would matter.
