Hi S Page,
Yes, when you follow a Permalink to a post in a topic, that post has a
green left bar (example
<https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Topic:S12prb6trf24nhkz#flow-post-s6qnyrhqagbuap44>).
But when you click on a "Hhhippo and 2 others responded" message
notification, there's an extra parameter fromnotif=1 that causes Flow to
highlight that post and newer ones (example
<https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Topic:S12prb6trf24nhkz&topic_showPostId=s6qnyrhqagbuap44&fromnotif=1#flow-post-s6qnyrhqagbuap44>).
... What do you mean by "the actual reply"? Is there a special
notification for a direct reply to one of my posts?
I don't think so, whether you're watching the topic or someone replies to
your post you get the same 'flow-notification-reply' "Xxxx responded",
and
if there are additional notifications then Echo's notification bundling
transforms them into one 'flow-notification-reply-bundle' "Xxx and N others
responded". The topic from the first notification becomes the permalink.
(A gadget writer could add a client-side "Highlight newer posts than
this" action: fame and fortune awaits)
Yes yes, got the hint already last time ;-)
It's my general exhortation to the crowd.
