How To Add Links To Story Pins ? Noticed a few accounts able to do it (added screenshots)

I've seen several people asking if links in story pins was a thing. I thought it was a myth until I saw this post , clicking the link takes you to their website. So my question is how do you do it ? Is it a feature only a few accounts have ? Would love some clarification.

@Animeshirtsclub, @therealsouthamerica , @allthingsamore@allaboutbabyblog  -- we’re always experimenting with new products and features, and sometimes we iterate on a product to improve your experience. The most recent version of Story Pins does not support links, but you may see Story Pins that were published using a different version of the product. Hope this helps! 📌

Some countries have that feature. USA is not one of them xD

I heard that pinners in the UK can add links.

Let's hope we will get that feature soon too - otherwise the story pins are kinda pointless, at least for me.

I am glad I am not the only one that is super annoyed at trying to figure out how to get a link on the story pins. I think that they are a wonderful thing, just wish I could like to the blog post where the recipe, etc. was written in full. Maybe that will be a future improvement.
