Can the notification bell count notifications not marked as read from the previous visit?

[Kevin Reyes]

When I receive platform notifications and then come on to the platform, the bell icon shows the number of all the notifications received since the last time I checked the notification centre.

If I scroll past a few of them, and I mark some as read and others not, the next time I come on to the platform, the number shown won't count the notifications I didn't mark as read in my previous visit.

It would be ideal if this can be configured to always count the ones I didn't marked as read, as I leave them unread because I haven't had time to go over their corresponding JIRA issues.

It can currently be problematic as if there are no new notifications the 2nd time I visit the platform, it makes it look like I have no unread notifications.

This should be the answer:

I've confirmed with multiple individuals that using my script allows to work through the whole backlog of notifications to mark them as read.
