Conversations that are automatically marked as “unread” or "unarchived"

Below are the top reasons for why Guesty will mark your conversation thread as "unread":

1. Any "unread" conversations in the Inbox indicate that the most recent message/s has yet to be read/opened.
   Keep in mind, Auto Messages won't impact the status of a conversation. This means that if a conversation's last message is an Auto Message and is also marked as "unread", then the conversation thread was already "unread" when the Auto Message was sent.
2. Any reservation status change will also change the conversation thread to "unread", even if there isn't a new message received.
   While there won't be any indication within the conversation thread itself about the reservation change, you'll be able to view the updates in the reservation side widget.
3. A conversation thread will be created once a new reservation is made, even if the guest hasn't sent a message.
   The conversation will always start as an "unread" message when a reservation is confirmed, regardless of whether an automated message was sent.
4. If a new message is received in an "archived" conversation thread, the entire thread will be automatically "unarchived", and move back to the Inbox's main conversation feed.
