How to pin a post in your community

Pin an important post to help members find it instantly in your community feed. Creators and Creator Team members can pin a post in their community, including in its Categories.

To pin a post

  1. Open the post you want to pin.
  2. Select the three-dot menu on the post.
  3. Choose Pin Post.
  4. Choose how long to keep it pinned: Tomorrow, One week, Two weeks, One month, or a Custom date and time.
  5. Select Pin Post to confirm.

A custom expiration must be in the future and no more than one month away. The date and time are shown in your local time.

What happens when a post is pinned?

The pinned post gets priority in its community’s default feed (“Most Relevant”) and displays a pin icon next to the post title. It won’t receive that priority in the Most Recent feed or the cross-community feed.

Your community can have one pinned post at a time. If you pin another post, the current pinned post will be unpinned and replaced. You’ll see a notice naming the post that will be replaced before you confirm.

Unpin a post

To remove a pin before it expires:

  1. Open the pinned post’s three-dot menu.
  2. Choose Unpin Post.
  3. Confirm by selecting Unpin Post.

Pins are also removed automatically when their selected expiration time arrives.
