Navigation to New comments stopped working
Comments no longer are marked new, so it's impossible to navigate to the new ones only.

New Comments Tags Gone
Can't tell new comments from old comments except by reading all of them. Please help. As it is now, it is useless.
Please fix NEW COMMENTS link!!!!!!

You mean these ? I see them.
Please paste the link from your browser address that is not working.
Jacob, it's not fixed! When one clicks on the "x comments" link in an email received with subject "Conversations you are following" (daily), and one then goes to right above the enter a new comment box, there used to be a "new comments" link (i.e. go to new comments") and that is gone. Also thus gone are the New and Prev|Next in orange.
Daniel, it's back to working with this morning's "There are new comments for you on SA" daily email... both the "x new" in orange and the "previous | next" in orange at each post.
Now, what can we do to put some logic back into how this works. With each new page load (clicking on each "x comment" line link in each's daily email) the page renders mid-screen - not at the "x new" by the comment box. The comments are loaded in reverse logic by default (newest at top, not chronologically oldest at top), so one needs to manually scroll up to that drop down box to re-sort and then re-scroll (using "x new" hyperlink) to get to where one can "catch up read" in logical/chronological order.
Can you change default to oldest-to-newest default sort, or allow each subscriber to set their own global default (so we don't have to resort with every new page load)?
Thx for the first fix!
There used to be an orange tag (?) on each new comment, along with a link to the next new comment. Suddenly these seem to be gone and I cannot find new comments. Thinking it might be my Chrome browser at fault, I tried FireFox and it also does not show the new comments anymore.
Without the flags it becomes impossible to use the forum. You send me email that some forum has been updated, but I have no way to find out what was updated.
