Pinned posts and announcements

Pin an important post so it shows as a short item in the side column, easy for everyone to come back to.

The family creator and admins can pin a post: it then shows as a short item in the left column of the family wall (and as small buttons above the wall on a phone). Press it to open the full post in a window, with its comments; an admin can unpin it with the × beside it. It suits announcements: a gathering date, important news, a family rule.

How do I pin?

  1. Press the three dots (...) at the top of the post.
  2. Choose Pin to the top for 7 days, 30 days, or until you unpin it.

To write a new announcement, publish a normal post and then pin it.

Rules

  • Up to 3 posts can be pinned at once. Unpin one to pin another.
  • When the time ends, the post goes back to its place in the wall by itself.
  • When you pin, your relatives get one notice (they can switch announcements off in Notification settings).
  • Pinning and unpinning are recorded in Family activity.
