Hey Heiko Feisel, thanks for your input :)
What is your idea for that status, what exactly defines a news item als "new"?

Hi Angela Gaida. Thanks for your questions. We had the idea for such a feature because we recognized that our colleagues sometimes do not notice that there is a new blog entry on our landing page. So we want this "new" patch be shown on news like for one day when the blog entry is online. Another opportunity could be that the "new" sign only disappears if the user clicks the news and (hopefully) read it :)
Could those explanations help you?

Hey Caroline: we had the same requirement and helped ourselves with a workaround that works with the add-on 'Viewtracker':

By default, unread posts are marked with a small purple circle in the top right corner of the cover story object.
With the help of an adjustment in the Linchpin Theme Configuration - Custom CSS we inserted a graphic (jpg, see screenshot) instead of the purple dot.
Maybe this is a solution for you too?
