Steps to reproduce

  1. Open a group with a pinned message.
  2. Close the message.

Expected behaviour

Ability to open the message again. Should be in group menu, group info or somewhere else.

Actual behaviour

I missed this ability years ago, and I still can't find it.

Configuration

Operating system: Debian GNU/Linux 10 Version of Telegram Desktop: 1.4 Used theme: Classic

In fact, I would expect users can't unpin a message if the group setting does not allow them to pin messages.

it's not unpin, instead hide pinned message.

How should I describe the difference to my grand-ma?

easy: unpin: remove pinned message for everyone. hide pinned message: remove pinned message for you.

mudrd8mz commented 4 years ago

Right. It's probably because we wanted to use the pinned message as a permanent "forced" message that everybody must see and never hide. So I was hoping that if users can pin/unpin, they can't simply hide the message.

AlexanderKositsyn commented 4 years ago

Why this not done yet? I can't open pinned message if I accidentally hide it!

Hey there!

This issue will be automatically closed in 7 days if there would be no activity. We therefore assume that the user has lost interest or resolved the problem on their own.

Don't worry though; if this is an error, let us know with a comment and we'll be happy to reopen the issue.

Thanks!

bodqhrohro commented 4 years ago

I guess it's still relevant.

slaps the metallic butt

Get outta here, bot!

Hey there!

This issue was inactive for a long time and will be automatically closed in 30 days if there isn't any further activity. We therefore assume that the user has lost interest or resolved the problem on their own.

I researched the current behaviour, and found out that this actual issue is still not resolved. Yeah, there already are pin status markers at the messages, yeah, there is now a confirmation dialog which makes less possible to hide some pinned message accidentally. But if this is done already, there still seems to be no way to see the list of messages that are pinned for others.

There's no other solution than to completely remove user data directory / uninstall and reinstall ?

Same problem here, but with the channels I've subscribed to (not groups).

I use Telegram Desktop v2.6.1 on Debian GNU/Linux 10.

Indeed, I made such a mistake, because I didn't expect that it would be impossible to display the pinned message(s) back, which prevents me to contact a channel's author for months ! Frankly, this lack of feature is painful.

I've tried to unsubscribe and then to subscribe again to the channel, without any effect. I've tried with the same software but from another computer : no banner in the channel, neither. Probably if you remove every data (and, optionally, the application), you'll get back the pinned msgs banner.

Is there an open PR addressing this? It's been a lingering (albeit minor) issue for years.
