Edit, delete, pin, or announce posts

Open the three-dot menu on a post to see the actions available for your role and that post.

Edit or delete your post

Authors can select Edit, update a normal post, and select Save. The destination cannot be changed while editing, and published polls cannot be edited. Authors can also select Delete and confirm; deletion cannot be undone from the post interface.

Admins can delete another member's post but cannot edit it as that member.

Pin an important post

Admins can select Pin to place an eligible post above the regular feed and Unpin to remove it. Only posts without a page or event destination can be pinned. Pinning depends on the community plan; coapp shows an upgrade prompt when it is unavailable.

Announce a post

Admins can select Announce and confirm Send announcement to send an additional notification to active community members. If shown, Ignore notification preferences sends it regardless of member notification choices.

A post can be announced once. Announcements depend on the community plan and are unavailable for private or unpublished page content. Active members already receive new-post notifications by default, so use manual announcements for especially important updates.

Announcements and newsletters

An announcement is a one-time notification about a post; it is not a newsletter campaign or a member email list. To connect a newsletter service or create another external communication workflow, use Manage community integrations. The available options depend on the connected service and your community setup.
