Pinned Dev log for known issues and etc.

I was think about this for long.

if you have some known issues to tell or if you have some important messages about your game to the new audience,

Using pages "Main Description" section might ruin the accessibility  to your game if your game is not a web based. especially if you have too much words on the Description.


And the Dev logs on pages are sorted based on release date. which is if you uploads more dev logs later it will be gone from the showing list and you have to post the same thing again.


What I experienced was many peoples were just ignore the long descriptions and just download the game, or loose their interests and left the page before they reach to the "Download" Button. 

many games might loose their chances because this.


So I wish there is a way to put all does information into one Dev log and highlight it on top of the Dev log list with different color(like link or header color) with the pin icon on the side of the title of Dev log.


Thank you for paying attention on this, I hope you have a great day.

I use sticky topics in the Community section, which will always show up at the top of Community (but below Devlogs), although I suspect a more general problem is most people won't go further than the Donwload button at the top of the page.

I saw there is one page's  actually have a download buttons on top of the page but I think it's custom.(I'm not sure how but it was "Forager" did.)

And Thanks for telling me about the sticky topics. I will check it later.
