## Vote on topic reply 

As a member of the Spot, you can vote on a topic reply by clicking on one of the arrows below the answer.

For each reply, you have 2 voting options:&#x20;

* By clicking on the top arrow, you add one vote.&#x20;
* Clicking on the down arrow removes one vote.&#x20;

## The list of voters&#x20;

As an admin, I can access the list of members who have voted on an reply to a Topic. To do so, click on the reply's score value. A drawer opens. It contains the list of members who have voted on this reply.&#x20;

You can sort this list, displaying only those who voted positively or negatively.&#x20;

You can also send a bulk message to all voters. The bulk message takes the filter into account.

## Sort replies within a Topic&#x20;

To make it easier for you to access the answers that interest you, you can sort them according to different criteria. To do so, click on one of the three buttons under the topic title and description, and the list of replies will be updated automatically.&#x20;

There are 3 sorting options:&#x20;

* `Newest` sorts responses from the most recent to the oldest.&#x20;
* `Score` sorts responses according to their vote score: from highest to lowest.&#x20;
* `Oldest` sorts answers from oldest to most recent.

## Pinning a reply to a Topic&#x20;

To highlight a reply to a topic, admins can pin it. To do so, click on the icon at the top right of the reply.&#x20;

The pinned reply :&#x20;

* has a 📌 icon in the top right-hand corner.&#x20;
* has a green background.&#x20;
* is displayed at the very top of the list, regardless of the sorting selected.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
If several responses are pinned, the response pinned last is displayed first.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

To unpin a reply, click on the bar at the top right of the reply.&#x20;

{% hint style="success" %}
Only admins can pin or unpin a reply.
{% endhint %}
