Our users keep asking us for the same things over and over. What I usually do, I redirect them to the official Canny thread by sending them links.
It would be cool as an admin If I can pin these questions in one board and use it as an FAQ on our website.

For really important topics that needs a lot of user engagement, it will be great if we stick a specific post at the top so it is always viewed as the top post in a specific board.

+1. I would like to have the ability to pin an "INSTRUCTIONS" post to the top of the board. My "INSTRUCTIONS" ;post should always be on the top, even if other posts have higher scores.
This allows some level of providing context to users.

Yawning Albatross: This is actually something that you could do in the description of your board settings > Create Post Form

I second this, similar to a pinned post on Facebook pages. Rather than showing most popular, or trending first, an admin can pin a post to the top to insure everyone sees it, creating more user feedback. This is helpful for developing more complex requests. For example, if an admin gets a request for user profiles, the pinned post could become a discussion about what to include in user profiles. A step before a request becomes "planned".

Can you link me to such a post? Is this some kind of instruction on how to use the board?
