Support Forums: No visual indication for visited links

Description

At the moment, regular and visited links are displayed in the same color​.

Is that intentional, or just something we didn't get around to fixing yet?

Before the upgrade, visited links were displayed in a different color, and bbPress 1.x used to append ?replies=X to topic URLs so that topics with new replies were no longer marked as visited.

At the very least, we should be using the -visited variable.

Right now we're using the ​WP blue for the links. I tried adding the Medium Blue as the visited color and it looks something like this:

Top two links are "visited" while the bottom two are default.

Contrasted with the footer links which still use an older blue.

2569.diff​ seems like a good first move here, I'm not sure why we're overriding the global wp4 styling though.. If we want to change link colours site-wide for consistency, we should just rely upon it's colours.
