Unread topic bold functionality works only after manually enabling “Display numbers of new community activities”

Currently, the unread topic functionality is working only after users manually enable the below setting from Profile → General Settings:

“Display numbers of new community activities”

Issue:

  • By default, this setting is set to “No” for users.
  • Because of this, unread/read topic highlighting is not working initially.
  • Users must manually change it to “Yes” and click “Save changes” for the functionality to work.

Expected behavior:

  • The setting should be enabled (“Yes”) by default for all users.
  • Existing users should also have this preference enabled automatically.

Could you please confirm if there is any admin/backend configuration available to make this enabled globally for all users?
