How do I mark a story as breaking?

Steps

1. Open Settings → Site & brand → Add features. The page is called Features.
2. Find Breaking label under For your site. If it is not there, open Other niches. Tap Switch on (or Show in my admin). When it shows On, it is ready.
3. If it shows Needs and a plan name, your plan does not include it yet. See Choose a plan.
4. Open the story in the editor.
5. Turn on Mark as breaking.
6. Choose Breaking until. Pick a time in the future.
7. Publish the story.

Good to know

• The editor says: "Shows a Breaking label and pins the story to the top of the home page."
• The story list shows "Breaking until" and the time.
• Only the site owner can switch features on. Others see: "Only the owner can add features. Ask the owner to switch one on."

Common problems

It says to choose until when the story stays breaking. Why: You turned on breaking without an end time. Fix: Set Breaking until.

I cannot find Breaking label in my admin. Why: The feature is off or not yet installed. Fix: Open Settings → Site & brand → Add features and tap Switch on or Show in my admin. If a screen says "This feature is switched off. The owner can switch it on in Features.", ask the owner.
