Featured topics
Site staff can designate a set of hashtags as “Featured topics” which are highlighted on a page available to users. The page lets users view all of the posts associated with a particular featured topic.
It can be difficult to find posts that you’re interested in, especially if you’re new to a social network. The “Featured topics” page lets site staff highlight different hashtags that they think may be relevant to a wide range of people. It also encourages people to contribute to featured topics and use hashtags.
To add a featured topic, site staff go to the “Administration” tab on the “Preferences” page. Then select “Featured topics” and input the name of a featured topic. Featured topics have to be valid hashtags—most importantly, one word.
To view the featured topics, users click on the side panel button “Featured topics” to view the list of featured topics. Users can click again on a specific topic to see all the posts associated with it.
