- The option "Only show buffers with unread messages" is useful when you have a lot of buffers and cant meaningfully look at all of them at the same time. However, often you have a select few buffers that you use more frequently and would like to have displayed permanently. + The option "Only show buffers with unread messages" is useful when you have a lot of buffers and can't meaningfully look at all of them at the same time.

- To pin a buffer, type /buffer set localvar_set_pinned true. Note: Local variables on buffers are not persisted across WeeChat restarts, so either use script buffer_autoset.py to automatically apply that upon buffer creation or use a trigger if you want automatic repinning when buffer gets recreated. To unpin you can use the same command and set anything other than true.

- Helpful trigger for automatically repin buffer: /trigger add autopin signal "buffer_opened" "${buffer[${tg_signal_data}].full_name} =~ irc.freenode.#weechat" "" "/command -buffer ${buffer[${tg_signal_data}].full_name} * /buffer set localvar_set_pinned true"
