I found this when I was looking for something else this morning (story of my life, lol)
It gives a bit of a legend to what the different symbols mean. I knew a few of them like the locked symbol but there are a few new to me ones as well.

Looking for an answer please if anyone can help....
In the past, when I would look at a thread, it's colour went from bold to regular type. When I returned to the board another day, it would still have the lighter type so I would know I'd already read it.
Now the thread changes colour once I've opened it and then returned to the main page but when I leave the board and come back all the threads are a bold colour again.... I know I can use the quick link button to "mark all forums read" but then I don't get the bold vs regular typeface when I come back.... does this make sense what I'm saying? If so, does anyone have an answer for me? I can adjust the settings if I only knew what to adjust!

I'm thinking that it will be bold again when you sign on again, if there have been new posts to that thread. Also I think there might be a difference in "New Posts" in the black bar and the one lower down There is also a "Today's Posts" in the "Quick Links" drop down arrow.

I'm still experimenting to figure things out, but I'm finding I like the new format ok now I've adjusted to it and the recent update changes really helped with the visibility issues from the initial change in format.
