Tightknit Release Notes (June 3, 2026)
📌 Pinned Posts On The Companion Site
Your most important Slack announcements will no longer get buried. Admins can now pin VIP posts to the top of any feed on the companion site, mirroring the pinned messages in Slack. It's perfect for spotlighting contests, welcome posts, must-read resources, and timely updates. 💡 You must have the latest version of the Tightknit slack app installed to use pinned posts. You can enable pinned posts in the Feed settings of the Slack app home. Then simply pin a slack message as usual: click the ⋮ message menu, select Organize, select "Pin to channel". Tightknit will sync the pin and display the pinned post on the site.
