If you author can manage options, they can manage WP-Sticky and as far as I know Author cannot manage options, check out http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities
What I mean is I want to disable the Sticky Post option for authors when publishing a post, are there any ways to remove that and only admins could make a post sticky/announcement? thanks
Oh, I get what you mean.
In wp-sticky.php,
Find:
function sticky_add_meta_box() {
add_meta_box('poststickystatusdiv', __('Post Sticky Status', 'wp-sticky'), 'sticky_metabox_admin', 'post', 'side');
}
Replace:
function sticky_add_meta_box() {
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_level = intval($current_user->user_level);
if($user_level == 10) {
add_meta_box('poststickystatusdiv', __('Post Sticky Status', 'wp-sticky'), 'sticky_metabox_admin', 'post', 'side');
}
}
The code is untested
