GitHub notifications showing "unread"

Question

For a while now my GitHub notifications page has been showing "1 unread" notification, even though all my notifications are "read". Nothing is listed when clicking the "unread" tab (or the "all" tab for that matter).

How can I clear this? It's quite annoying!

Answer 1

So - I found a way to clear this (with a bit of help from this thread: https://github.com/community/community/discussions/6874)

Here's the process I used:

• Goto the Done tab
• Click select all then click move to inbox
• Goto the Inbox
• Click select all then mark as unread
• Click the link that says select all xxx messages
• Click Done

Hopefully this should clear the ghost "unread" message!
