I’d like to remove the pinned About topic for categories, and just can’t figure out how to do it. I just want my categories to start with the posts, not an about posts.

Thanks!

By default, the pinned about post is unpinned when the user reads it, and after some new topics on the category, it disappears on the infite scroll land.

Unpin it and Unlist it. Those topics are your category description, so you can’t/shouldn’t delete them.

Thanks. I see where to unpin, but not unlist.

If you’re looking at the Pin button at topic bottom, that’s the “per user” option.

You want the wrench icon that’s above that.
