How do you merge two boards or sections?
You can merge any boards or sections you own. Check three things first: followers of the merged board don't transfer to the destination board, a secret board merged into a public one takes the destination board's privacy setting, and undoing a merge means moving the Pins back one by one. On a computer:
- Open your profile and click the board you want to merge.
- Click the ellipsis icon next to the board name and select Merge.
- Click the chevron next to Pick a board and choose the board to merge with.
- Click Move Pins and Delete Board.
- Shortcut on a computer: drag one board into the centre of another and click Move Pins and delete board
- In the app: open the board, tap the ellipsis icon, select Merge (or Merge boards), pick the other board and tap Merge
- Sections: hover over the section on a computer, click the edit icon, select Merge, pick a section and click Move Pins and delete section

How do you sort your boards on your profile?
Board order affects what visitors see first. On a computer, open your profile, click Saved, then:
- Click the filter icon above your boards.
- Choose A to Z, Custom or Last saved to.
- For a manual order, choose Custom, then drag a board into the space between two others.
- If prompted, click Lose previous customization.
- In the app, tap Boards (Saved on a business account), tap the vertical arrows icon and choose Oldest saved, Custom or Recently saved
- To reorder by hand in the app, tap and hold a board, select the vertical arrows icon, drag it into place and tap Done

What can go wrong?
The usual surprises when tidying boards:
- Followers disappeared after a merge: followers of the merged board don't carry over, so merge the smaller board into the one with more followers
- A private board's Pins became public: after a merge, the destination board's privacy setting applies
- You want to undo a merge: there's no undo. Create a new board or section and move the Pins back one by one
- You want to move Pins to a different account: Move only works between boards and sections on your own profile
- Your custom board order reset: choosing an automatic sort replaces it. Pick Custom and drag the boards again
