I assume you  mean on group view…

what do you have for the nesting option?  see:  https://simple-press.com/documentation/codex/api/template-functions-and-the-api/display-template-functions/group-view/sp_forumindexsubforums/

we normally display an unread icon…  are you using a custom theme? if so, please ensure your theme actually has that icon…

As you can see the subforums are showing an unread icon, but the main forum isn’t. The main forum has the same red unread icon in settings but it’s not showing

but you didnt answer the questions…  what do you have set for the allNested option?

also, since you are using a custom icon, did you define and use a custom unread icon (ie new posts)… you would select it the same place you did the custom icon..

Had a typo in the icon name, stupid of me thanks for the help

You’re welcome. Glad its resolved.
