Gift ideas in your circle
Add, edit, and remove gift ideas for people in your circle, with clear labels showing who added each one or which post it came from.
Open a gift list
Open the circle's member list and choose Gift ideas beside a person, including yourself. The person's page also shows their gift ideas when that page is available. Manually added ideas work without AI features or AI processing consent.
The circle-wide gift highlights show ideas for other active members. Your own list is never included there; open your list from the member roster to see ideas you added for yourself.
Where ideas come from
Suggested from a post identifies an automatic suggestion, with the original words and speaker beside it. Choose Open source post when a source link is available. Automatic suggestions still depend on the circle's AI settings, consent and access to their sources.
Added by followed by a member's name identifies an idea that person added. An idea you add to your own list is visible to every active member. An idea someone else adds to your list, or an automatic suggestion about you, is not shown to you, even if you are a circle owner or co-admin. Your own view contains only ideas you added. The original source post remains readable under its usual access rules.
Add or change an idea
Under Add a gift idea, write in Gift idea and choose Add. Ideas are plain text, up to 500 characters; the count appears below the field. There are no attachments or clickable links. Choose Edit on an idea you added, then Save, or choose Cancel to leave it unchanged.
Remove an idea
Choose Remove when it is offered. You can remove your own additions. Circle owners and co-admins can also remove other members' additions and automatic suggestions they can see, but cannot remove an idea the gift recipient added for themselves. Removing an automatic suggestion leaves its source post intact and prevents the same evidence from recreating it; different evidence can produce another suggestion.
An idea remains when its creator leaves. Their name remains with it; if their membership is permanently erased, the label becomes Added by a former member. A person who leaves no longer has an available list. Closed circles show Gift ideas are read-only in a closed circle.
Gift-list actions do not send notifications, emails, or text messages. Lists can refresh while open. Claiming or checking off ideas is not available.
