Searching for can't or O'Brien returns nothing, even though posts containing those terms exist. Searching without the apostrophe works.

Looks like the apostrophe is breaking the query somewhere.

You can pin a topic from its action menu — look for "Pin to top." A space can hold more than one pinned topic; pinned items sort above the rest while keeping their own order.

Thanks for writing this up. Bookmarking it — the kind of thing I will want to reference again in a month.
