There can be some confusion about why a post is marked as "read" automatically in the Moodle forums and when they remain "unread" until you read them.
First, for unread posts to be tracked and highlighted, forum tracking must be turned on. Forum tracking is enabled by default.
Second, tracking can be affected by the email digest type:
If Subscription is set to "No", then no emails will be sent out and posts will not automatically be marked as "read".
You may override email notification marking posts as read. If you do not want posts marked as read when emails are sent you, you can override this behaviour:
Navigate to the User menu in the top right and then click on Preferences.
Click on Forum preferences.
If you do not want email notifications marking posts as read, set this to Do not mark the post as read.
