My subs is highlighting yellow for unknown reason. How turn off?

1. Tap on it. That's the indication that one of them has a new post.

2. Unsubscribe from forums and posters. Then when one of those is updated you won't see the yellow.

3. I tapped on

“None”

5. Double tap on all/none/filter blue box. That worked. Thanks.

Spoke too soon. Turned back on all by itself.

4. Mine is too. I did all that and it's still yellow. I figured it was a du glitch.

6. Folks, there is NO WAY to keep the "My Subs" tab from lighting up except to unsubscribe from ALL forums and

ALL people.

This has been the subject of *many* threads here over the last 2 years, and there is no other way. It's just one of those life-sucks-and-then-you-die kind of thing.

I hate the "My Subs" lighting up too -- I quickly tap on "My Subs" to turn it off, and then the back button to get back to where I was. I wish I didn't have to do that innumerable times a day, but again it's just one of those life-sucks-and-then-you-die situations. It's a consequence of subscribing to any forums or any people.

I do subscribe to a few forums of high interest and low traffic -- and I see those in my left column in the "Subscribed Forums" section following the main forums. Their folders turn yellow when a new OP is made to the forum, and that's all the notification I want. The "My Subs" tab at the top of the page is totally redundant and unnecessary, and is like shining a 200 watt yellow light in my face that I am never in the mood for.

ETA - when one clicks on the "My Subs" tab, there is a "Filter by forum" section and "Filter by Person" section and a "CHECK ALL/NONE" checkbox and a "FILTER" button, all on the right hand side of the page. I've tried every possible combination of checkbox unchecking and button pressing, but none of what I did sticks. When I go to another page and then back to the "My Subs" page, they are all checked again.

7. You can turn it off by removing all your subscriptions

The My Subs tab lights up whenever a new thread is posted in a forum you are subscribed to, or whenever a thread is posted by a person you are subscribed to. If you are not subscribed to any forums or people, the tab will not light up.

The "Filter" options in the right column of the Subscriptions page do not affect the My Subs tab. They are for filtering your current view of the Subscriptions page. So for example, if you want to quickly see recent threads by a single person you're subscribed to, you would only check the box next to that person's name, and then only that person's threads will be displayed on the Subscriptions page. But that filter only applies to the entries on the Subscriptions page, it has no other effect.

You can remove subscriptions by either going to the forum you are subscribed to, or going to the profile of a person you are subscribed to, and clicking the "Unsubscribe" button at the top. You can reach those forums and people by clicking the links in the right column of the Subscriptions page.

10. Finally!!! I got it. Geezzz !

11. Could this be true -- on filtering forums:

I have 6 subscribed forums.

I find on the Subscriptions page (accessed by My Subs) that on the right side if I unchecked 4 of them and leave 2 checked -- and
IF I remember to click the Filter button:

The Subscriptions page shows only the threads from the 2 checked forums (as your #7 says with regard to subscribed people).
Cool.

But the left panel that is displayed on all DU pages (unless one clicks the left arrow at the top of the panel to hide the panel) -- the panel that starts at the top with "Signed in as..." then lists the main forums, and then lists my subscribed forums - is not altered at all - it lists up to 5 threads taken from all 6 subscribed forums, presumably in chronological order from the 6-forum pool

And, as you say, "The "Filter" options in the right column of the Subscriptions page do not affect the My Subs tab."

(I don't subscribe to any people)

TIA
