The first step to pinning a message is to update the WhatsApp application. Because, if it has not been updated, the message pin menu will not appear on the user's WhatsApp. 

How to pin a chat pin on WhatsApp is very easy. The steps are almost similar to when you want to delete a message. Here are the steps:

- Open WhatsApp as usual

- Enter one of the chat rooms, either group or private chat

- Specify the message you want to pin

- Press and hold the message until a menu option appears

- Click the 'More' option. 

- Select the 'Embed' menu. 

- There will be options for the duration of the pinned chat, namely 24 hours, 7 days, and 30 days. 

After selecting the last option, you will see the pinned message appear at the top of the chat room with a pin icon on the left side. When clicked, you will automatically be directed to that chat.

Alternatively, you can also be directed to the pinned message by long-clicking on the pinned chat > open message. 

Pinned messages will not last forever. The message will be pinned according to the selected duration. For example, 7 days. After that duration, the pinned message will disappear unless the user renews it.
