I guess it could be explained through an example (Summary at the end):

If the community cards dealt were 5 3 J 6 9 of hearts for example

Every player basically has the flush.

If no players have cards of the same suit, or they do but those are too low to improve the flush on the board (have only 2 of hearts for example), they all split the pot.

But if one of the players holds a higher card of the same suit like Ace of hearts for example, that player would win because he would hold the highest flush possible.

However if there was another player that had 7 and 8 of hearts he would win instead because he's got a straight flush - the best possible hole cards in this situation.

Long story short, if community cards reveal a flush, players split the pot if none of them can improve that flush with their own hole cards.
