Factorio Forums

Could someone explain to me what each of these mean??

I assume that top left is a generic topic, red means unread
bottom right is announcement? and bottom middle is info?

what do the other ones mean?

middle right is supposed to represent the animated one

And also this one (has a lock)

- Announcement
- Sticky topic
- Read topic
- Unread topic
- Read topic that you have posted in
- Unread topic that you have posted in
- Hot topic
- Locked topic
- Moved topic
- Forum with subforums (which have been read)
- Forum with subforums (which are unread)
- Link forum
- Attachment
- Go to last post in the topic
- Go to last unread post in the topic
- Subforum read
- Subforum unread

Wow that was fast
Thanks so much, certainly cleared that up for me!

Link forum?
Never seen that before. :O
When is it used?

When the moderator makes a link.


See for example:

Currently can be also found in General: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... 5&start=75

Yes, this is the moved topic icon, I know it.
This appears when a moderator moves a topic to somewhere but leaves a redirection where the topic originally was.


What I meant is the link forum icon:
I've never seen this before and also don't know what it means.

Hm. I would say, this is linking of a complete subboard into another subbord. Not moderator action.

All I found was this: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtop ... &t=2018225
Seems to me, that this is the type of a boards/forum. A link is - as I understand it - something, that can link to another website. In our case a link from the "gameplay help" to the http://www.factorio.com/help would be useful.

So a link forum should be a link or a redirection to another, external website, masked as a forum topic. Clicking on it would be like clicking on a "default" link that can be found elsewhere in the Internet.
That sounds very... logical!

Hello,

where can I find the "go to last unread post" button?
I always see only the "go to last post" button but so I miss some interesting posts.

It's the little arrow button in the "Last Post" column of the forum lists:

This gets me literally to the last post but not to the last I read which the one with the red arrow would be indicate.

Hehe. More topping icons:
