Users can now pin a specific message, providing chat members with quick access to critical content at anytime.
Any member of a chat will be able to pin/unpin any specific chat message to the top of the chat header, for all members to see. Users can click on the pinned message to go to the original message in the chat thread. Currently, only a single message can be pinned at a time.
Available to everyone now
To use this feature, a user selects the 'Pin' option from the 'more options' (...) menu when hovering over the chat message they want to pin. User 1 writes multiple messages to user 2.

Any user can click the pinned message to view it, or unpin it for the entire chat members. There will be a warning message followed to confirm unpinning.
The user can replace the pinned message with another message by pinning the new message. When replacing a pinned message the user will get the following warning.
Users should be aware of the following behaviors:
