Blog and forum content can be pinned to the top of their channel's feed. Pinning content is a great way to keep important information visible and accessible. Blog Article widgets and Forum Topics widgets can be configured to respect the pinned settings of the content they display to keep pinned content prominent in other digital workplace locations.
Since the relevancy of content can change over time, pinned content can be set to have the pin expire at a specific date. If the content will be relevant for an extended time, consider using a Call to Action widget or a Links widget to direct members to the content or information.
