Under Other in your preferences you’ll see Automatically unpin topics when I reach the bottom. You can also change the default behaviour for all users in the site settings.

Automatically unpinned after reading?

Found it, thanks. What’s the purpose of this setting? If things are pinned, isn’t it the whole purpose that they stay at the top? I also noticed 2 similar settings in the All Site Settings: [image] What’s the difference?

automatically_unpin_topics defines whether you want this feature on. If on, it will add a checkbox in the user’s preference to override this behavior. (Preferences → Interface → Other): [image] default_topics_automatic_unpin sets the default value for that user’s option. I agree that the descri…
