Thanks to Chris Hofer for pointing out the need for adding this on the official Canvas documentation page. Chris, I think you are correct! I saw blue dots on the left side for unread discussions, which match our institution's general color scheme of dark blue on the side menu and other places. Wan, red may be your institution's color for an unread discussion. We'll have to see if the Canvas Doc Team has anything to say on that page.
Hi Kelley - Dots too bad. (Sorry....couldn't help myself!) You don't have "masquerade" powers, do you?? Because seeing nothing at all for me has indicated I read it. I wonder if you masqueraded as a student you might being seeing dots before your eyes? (See above parenthetical remark.)
Woo Hoo, Ken , you are a genius! maybe not a Good Will Hunting level of genius, but still pretty damn smart!
Thanks, Ken!

Glad I could help you for a change, Kelley L. Meeusen! I'll take Average Will Hunting any day...

Hi Wan Fareed - Yes; the interface for Discussions just changed yesterday with the Production Release Notes which, in turn, was discussed more in Beta Release Notes from April because it was delayed a bit.
However, I cannot for the life of me replicate those red dots! I see blue dots there for unread discussions and no dots at all for read discussions. Could your institution have enabled some special script to have red dots, perhaps for unread discussions? I'm not spotting anything in the documentation that specifies red dots, so I have to admit I'm as curious as you are!
