   Hi folks, I have problem with query_posts command and sticky posts. I am using custom twentyten child theme and in themes index.php I inserted this code
   if ( is_home() ) {query_posts($query_string.'&cat=3');}
   so only one category is on the front page. So my problem is when I make post sticky nothing happens. Post remains on it's place.
   I tried removing that code and then it was OK. But i need this because I want to show only one category on front page. Does anybody have a solution for my problem? Thanks

   Try:

   if ( is_home() ) {query_posts($query_string.'&cat=3&ignore_sticky_posts=0');}

   You may have to write a full custom query instead of concatenating onto the existing query.

   I was searching the google a little bit now and I realized that this won't be so easy to fix :D. Life is hard :P

   Is the sticky post in category 3?

   You could try doing this using two Loops - the first pulling in the sticky post and the second pulling in all of the other posts in category 3.

   It seems that is only possible way. Thank you for your answers. If anybody comes up with something else, write it :)
