[resolved] Display sticky from the parent category in single post (2 posts)

    Hi,

    I want to display content from the sticky post of the category of the current post. I have been able to display the sticky posts of current category on the category template, in the sidebar. However, if I have a category Mustang in the category Cars, I want to display only sticky posts from Cars in the sidebar when one is viewing Mustang post.

    How is this achievable?

    Thanks,

    I must be getting really smart now1! :)

    Here is the code

    <?php if (is_category() || is_single()) {
    $cat = get_the_category($post->ID);
    echo '<h3 class="textcenter">'.$cat[0]->cat_name.'</h3>';
    
    $args = array(
    	'post__in'  => get_option('sticky_posts'),
    	'cat' => $cat[0]->cat_ID
    );
    
    query_posts($args);
    
    if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); {
    
    the_content();
    }
    endwhile;
    endif;
    }
    ?>

    Hope it helps you as it helped me!
