We know that some journal entries are evergreen. Meaning, they contain important information that is always useful to new people visiting your site. As more and more entries to your Journal are created, these important evergreen entries get to push further down the list and more difficult to locate.

To ensure there was a way to stick the "Important" evergreen entries at the top we created a section in the left bar of the Journal page to keep all of these important entries.

When a Journal entry is marked as "Important", it means that a link to that journal entry will be added to the list of "Important" entries visible in the left sidebar of your Journal page.
