We’re looking for a way (via a plugin or any other method) to pin a comment to the top of the comment thread on a given forum post. The reason: We want to update older posts with current info/research etc., without rewriting the actual post itself. Any ideas?

[图片] Ralph3: The reason: We want to update older posts with current info/research etc., without rewriting the actual post itself. I run into this scenario often, as it’s useful to understand why we decided something, with the historical conversation. As @not-ethan mentioned, the Discourse Solved plugin is a useful tool for this. One method: Have your discussion topic, with all kinds of useful information (“Where should we have lunch?”) Move the useful information into a new topic (“Places to have lunch”) Reply to discussion topic with a link a short description, and mark that reply as the “Solution”, which will show prominently in the first topic Thanks for the input everyone! Now we have a solid list of lunch spots at https://forums.example.org/t/places-to-have-lunch/1337. Check it out! A bonus to this method is that it pairs well with other methods you may deploy over time, such as combining it with Discourse Docs, or long megathreads, or topics with auto-deleting replies… lots of combos for different ways of collaborating. :slight_smile:

Let me try my question again, this time using the proper Discourse terms. I’m re-trying because the suggestion of Solved Discourse Solved plugins leads me to believe I wasn’t clear. We have tech-oriented topics that are aging but we want to keep the text of the OP intact. At the same time, we don’t want readers to think that the text of the OP is necessarily complete. Our idea of an elegant solution is to pin a post directly beneath the OP which will contain any updates that we come across. Does this help clarify our need?

What about updates to the update? Are you going to create subsequent replies which roll up all the updates and then pin those? Or will you need to pin multiple responses? The reason this doesn’t have an immediate and obvious solution is because this is typically the domain of wiki posts. The current latest is presented, with previous versions still there for review.

Thanks, Stephen. Not having the necessary privileges, I wasn’t aware that wiki posts existed. (That’s because I’m trying to solve this issue for the org I work for.) But a wiki posts does sound like a good solution – assuming we can control the pinning of the wiki post directly beneath the OP. Do you know if that is possible?

The wiki is always the first post in the topic. So everyone can update and curate with OP, with edit history available to all.

Thanks again. It if the wiki post is always the first in the topic, then apparently it would be placed directly above the OP, not directly below it. Is that correct? Also, though I’m not an administrator, I’m not a beginner either. I’ve posted often on the forum, and yet I don’t see the menu when I click on the […] button; the […] simply expands to show the “bookmark” button. This is a bit confusing.

OK, then it looks like we’ll have to live with the wiki post being the OP in those cases. Thanks! Appreciate the help!

I shared the wiki post idea with my colleagues, including the forum moderator who created a wiki post for us to play with. The one problem is that the post we designated as a wiki does not move to the top. We haven’t experimented extensively, but having this powerful wiki feature in a topic doesn’t do us much good if it’s lost in a random place in the posts. any ideas here?

Not sure if this will work but reply and change the timestamp so it would be the oldest reply bumping it to the top.
