What we're building
In the final release of Posts on Slash, you will configure how writing appears on your public profile directly from the profile editor—the same place you arrange link blocks, media, and other sections.
Choosing featured (pinned) posts
You will be able to pick specific posts to highlight: for example a launch essay, a pricing update, or evergreen tutorials. Think of these as featured or pinned items—curated reading for anyone who lands on your page, not only what's newest in the editor.
- Select from posts you've already published (drafts stay private until you publish).
- Reorder featured posts so the most important story stays on top.
- Remove or replace a feature without deleting the underlying post from your account.
Placement: above or below your blocks
Featured posts will render as their own section on your profile, alongside your regular link and content blocks. You will choose whether that section sits above your block stack or below it—so you can lead with writing (essay-first layout) or keep classic links up top and let deep dives follow.
Visitors still see one cohesive profile: hero, links, featured posts, and the rest of your blocks in the order you define.
What visitors experience
Each featured item will typically show title, excerpt or preview, and a clear way to open the full post (on Slash or in your chosen reading surface). Non-featured posts remain available through archives or links you add manually until you decide to feature them.
Relationship to the dashboard
You will continue to compose and publish in Newsletter → Posts. The profile editor only controls which posts are promoted on your page and where that section sits relative to blocks—similar to adding a block, but backed by real post records instead of a static URL.
Profile-level featured posts and above/below placement ship in a later update. Until then, use links or other blocks to point people at individual post URLs if you need them on your profile today.
