I was afraid of that. There's a lot of weird stuff with nested subforums, and that's why I've never used them before. In nested subforums, new posts aren't listed in the last post section of the main forum, and posts in nested subforums do not count toward the main forum's post count. The SMF team has said that it'd take too much processing power to pull data for nested subforums everytime someone accessed the main forum page.
However, I couldn't find any issue with unread topics in nested subforums, and it would probably take a lot of time and effort to get to the root of a minor problem (assuming it is a bug and not a design limitation like the ones above), so I've made the Codex a main forum, as Gerrick had already suggested in the discussion about the Codex.
