Uses of an online system include a target user and other users that are connected to the target users. The online system presents a content item received from a target user to the other users. The online system receives comments on the content item from the users and a selection of one of the comments from a user. The online system provides one or more types of actions (e.g., adding the comment to the content item or highlighting the comment) on the comment that the user can take. Upon receiving a selection of adding the comment, the online system modifies the content item to include the comment. Upon receiving a selecting of highlighting the comment, the online system associates a highlighting feature to the comment. The online system provides the modified content item or highlighted comment for display to the plurality of users.

Highlighting comments on online systems

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine a content item being posted to a social networking system. A selection of an option to obfuscate at least one portion of the content item can be determined. The at least one portion of the content item can be obfuscated.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a content feed comprising content items associated with a plurality of entities to be presented through a display screen of a computing device. A selection of an option to temporarily prevent content items satisfying at least one criterion from appearing in the content feed for a duration of time can be determined. At least one content item that satisfies the at least one criterion can be removed from the content feed.

Systems and methods for content management

A social networking system enables users to interact through a content item in real time by presenting an interaction bar to a user viewing a content item page associated with the content item. The social networking system presents the content item pages for content items along with a content item header. The content item header remains at a fixed position on the display of a viewing user's client device at the top of the display. If the social networking system receives an interaction with a content item, the social networking system can identify users who are viewing the content item page associated with the content item and present an interaction bar that describes the interaction in the content item header. To determine whether to present an interaction bar to a viewing user, the social networking system can calculate an affinity score of a viewing user for the interaction.

An online system receives a request from a target user to present a poll to other users of the online system. The poll includes a question and answer options associated with the question. The online system provides the poll for display to the other users and receives a selection of an answer option from each of the other users. Also, the online system receives comments associated with the poll from some of the other users. The online system qualifies the comments. For example, the online system generates a comment group for each of the answer options that includes comments from users who selected the answer option. As another example, the online system generates an indication for each comment that shows which answer options was selected by the user having provided the comment. The online system provides the comment groups and/or answer indications to the target user and the other users.
