Highlight important news and announcements so they appear straight on users’ home screens.

The Newsfeed Backoffice is used to post news and announcements to users, allowing them to engage with likes and comments. Now, in addition to posting to the users' inbox and to the Newsfeed wall, you can mark a post as "highlighted". Simply upload an image, and you will see an "Add to Highlights" checkbox appear at the bottom right of the message composer:

The picture should be 700 by 700 pixels in size, to ensure that it gets properly displayed on all screen sizes.

Once posted, the message will appear on the user's home screen, below the actions. When several posts are highlighted, they will be displayed in a horizontally scrollable carousel:
