    On some threads, the "Go To First Unread" button appears too thin, causing the text to spill off the right-hand side of the button. I haven't checked thoroughly but it seems like this happens only for threads that don't have multiple pages of posts.

    I assume this is some minor bug in the site's CSS, though once again I haven't really looked much into it yet. Attached is a combination of screenshots which demonstrates the issue, the same on many pages, in comparison to examples where it looks fine. It is very minor.

    This is what I'm seeing everywhere.

    Can you link me the thread in which the first image occurred? I cannot seem to find one that appears that way at all. I almost thought it had been resolved.

    I would assume it's theme's fault. I've seen it too on Incog.

    Well, anyways:

    Add this to stylish until it can be added to the final code base.

    Lemme know if it doesn't work.

    Code:
    .unreadLink {
    height: 20px;
    width: auto ;
    }

    Did you try they stylish code Because it resolved the problem for me anywhere it was showing before. Just wanted to see if more needed to be done to fix it.

    It was happening on this thread (until I refreshed the page and the button disappeared).

    Yes that CSS rule clears things up fine. Though I'd suggest using 18px for the height instead because that's how it appears on the other pages (and that matches up with the heights of the page number buttons, too).

    It only happens sporadically. So I couldn't say for sure if the stylish code worked immediately. But there haven't been any more instances since yesterday.

    It appears to happen only when there is a single page of content and there are new posts in it.

    When there are more than one page it displays correctly.

    Edit: This is using Incog style.

    That is consistent with what I've seen as well. I'm using WIP theme.

    Try replacing
    Code:
    .unreadLink
    with
    Code:
    .PageNav a.unreadLink
    in the Stylish code. It looks like the rule gets overridden by another rule otherwise.

    I pushed a fix to the underlying CSS. Let me know if you still see it.
