BUG: Updating of Recently Added Reading Lists
1) Open a particular RL.
2) Leave it open until someone has added at least one new RL.
3) Go back to All lists.
4) Look under Recently Added.

It seems to me that this is by design behavior, but I will go ahead and make a case about this for Development.
Instead of manually searching it you could go to the Reading Lists panel menu and click on 'Refresh Panel' it will update the Recently Added list and it will show the new RL.

nice workaround (it's F5 just like in a browser - probably it is sort of a browser anyway)

While you're at it: "Recently Added" is only a half true description, "Recently Changed" would be better, since it includes new as well as updated lists in order of last change.
Have joy in the Lord!

I apologize, there is actually no Refresh Panel option on the Mac, but it is available on Windows. I will create a case for this issue for Development.

I have created a case for your suggestion for Development.

Thanks.
However, can't you make it a button instead, so that one sees it? I'm not sure I would have noticed it in the panel menu even if it had been there...

Intuitively, I would expect Refresh Panel to be for refreshing the view I was in, whether All Lists or a particular list. Going back from a particular list to All Lists, I would expect Recently Added to be refreshed automatically. That's what a browser would do.

Wouldn't "Recently Changed" be only half true as well? Only something that already exists can be changed. "Recent Changes" (or "Recent Updates"?), on the other hand, seems fully true, as that would imply 'recent changes to the list', and the list has clearly been changed whether an RL has been added or updated.
Note that the same 'half truth' occurs on the home page, so a change here should be reflected there as well, and in the home page Settings: "Recent Reading List updates", perhaps? Or just "Reading List Updates"?
I wonder how I ended up posting this in General. Clearly a mistake. Feel free to move it to L5, where it should be.

FWIW I'm fine with both and concur that it's better than "Recently Changed" - actually I think I thought "Recent Changes", as that's what the topics.logos.com website calls it, but typed something different.
