Discussion Forum-Pinning a topic

Video Transcription

Sometimes, when you have a discussion forum, the system will automatically display the  most recent thread at the top, and this might get a little bit messy if there is any particular thread that you want the user to see at the very top.  So the way to handle this is, as administrator, you can go to the course that have discussion forum enabled, you click on the discussion board, and then you look for the thread that  you want to pin to the top and click on pin. So for example, if I want to pin this one, I would just click on this one to pin it.  Now that I pin it to the top, if I refresh this screen, I will be able to see that introduce  yourself at the top will be at the very top, so that it will never get pushed down as new threads get created. Thank you.
