(my mistake. Less than 5) Highlighting Recommended Posts not working

This discussion thread was locked by EarlG (a host of the DU4 Bug Reports forum).

Good feature, much requested by the punters.

My mistake. It is designed for 5 or greater recs.

I recommended a post but, later, I did not see it highlighted when I press the Highlight Recommended button. Highlighting 5 newest does work fine.

(Windows 7, Firefox 99, both old I know, but I'm stuck with it to keep a key program operational.)

will only highlight replies in the reply tree that have received 5 or more recommendations. This is the same threshold as getting an OP to the Greatest Page (it requires 5 recs to get there).

We did this because otherwise the Recommended highlighter might be a bit useless if many replies in the thread just have one or two recs -- the whole reply tree would light up. Hope that makes sense.
