   Hi,

   website is http://www.pgmsemblog.com

   can we make a sticky post in the category archive pages?

   i read about a way to do it by adding category description. But would prefer a post to be sticky there so it is easy for editing.

   any help will be appreciated.

   Thanks

   Ravi

   This will get one sticky post for the current category being viewed:

   <?php
   $cat = get_query_var('cat');
     $args=array(
       'post_type' => 'post',
       'post_status' => 'publish',
       'post__in'=>get_option('sticky_posts'),
       'category__in'=> array ($cat),
       'showposts' => 1,
       'caller_get_posts'=> 1
       );
     $my_query = null;
     $my_query = new WP_Query($args);
     if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
       while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
         <p><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></p>
        <?php
       endwhile;
     } //if ($my_query)
   wp_reset_query();  // Restore global post data stomped by the_post().
   ?>
