When I upgraded to WP 2.7 today, I tried to go to my site and got the following in my browser:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare is_sticky() (previously declared in /home/jzacsh/public_html/wp-includes/post.php:756) in /home/jzacsh/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-sticky/wp-sticky.php on line 150
Then, I deleted the entire "wp-sticky" folder in my "plugins" directory, and my site works fine (of course, now I don't have any sticky posts on my site).
Anyone know anything about this?
WordPress 2.7 now has sticky posts built in. You set the sticky post on the Post Edit panel with "Stick this post to the front page" checked.

Due to large number of requests, I have decided not to retire WP-Sticky and I have update it to 1.40 to make it compatible with WordPress 2.7. Check the link in the first post.

I must be blind. I have wordpress 2.7 and I don't see anywhere in the edit panel for posts where there is an option to make the post sticky.
The post I'm trying to stick is already on the front page, but I want to keep it at the top instead of having it pushed down. Is this what the built in sticky does in 2.7? If so, can somebody explain exactly where to find it to a blind bat? I tried wp-sticky 1.40 but that did not keep my post at the top either.

You need set it to "announcement" in order to keep it at the top

It took me forever to "notice" this feature... i have been waiting all my life for it *laughs*
If you "Quick Edit" a post, all the way to the right, next to "Status" is a box you check marked "make this post sticky".
GREAT FEATURE!

hehe, I see it now - had to click on "quick edit" instead of just plain "edit".
Thanks!
