Pinned Topics

[coffeebean832]

Hi Sheila- Some board history for you. Generally 4 pinned topics on any one board is considered too many by a lot of posters here. You may have picked up by now that a lot of us really dislike so much scrolling.

May I suggest merging the Forbes article with the other pinned topic on grants and/or unpinning the Marni post since it's been up for a week and has since been locked?

Thanks for considering this. 🙂

I totally agree!   Just jumping in to tag her since the staff doesn't seem to look at this board otherwise.

Agreed. I wondered if that was bugging anyone else . . .

It's getting kind of absurd at this point.

Can we get the secret pal sign-up topic de-pinned since the sign up period is over? Can we get the Forbes article either de-pinned or merged with the other pinned topic on grants?

Why am I getting an HTML error on this post when all I did was type in plain text with no copy/pasting? Could it be this code that who knows why Khoros inserted?

Thanks for the feedback on the pinned post. I understand that extra scrolling is no fun. I do have the pinned posts on a set schedule and will keep in mind that some Community users don't like a lot of pinned posts.

I know I'm being a pain in the butt this week- just frustrated that the board issues have gone on for so long and then things like this piled on top feels even more cumbersome. Thanks for taking in the feedback and also for working on the other technical and functional issues.

I'm fine with a few pinned topics- but when they take up 20% of the page it's too much. It's even worse when I use my tablet or phone.

@coffeebean832 - The post for the Secret Pal sign up has been unpinned, as well as the other threads you've mentioned here. 

I haven't run into this issue myself. Can you get me screenshots of the error if you're still getting this when trying to post without copying and pasting, so I can get it reported?

I think there are some pinned topics that could stand to be removed right now--like all four of the current ones. The "feel good motto du jour" and the "chit-chat" threads have certainly run their course, along with the survey thread and maybe even the podcast thread--although that looks likes it's going to be ongoing.

@pburn we're trying different things to drive engagement, help sellers learn and have some fun on the Community too. The podcast post will not be pinned anymore, but will instead be added as a regular post.
