To explain, nothing seems to happen after I click the “Sticky” checkbox on the ‘edit’ or ‘create new post’ page.
Thanks… DB~
What’s your Theme?
Do you happen to know if you have a Custom Query to call the posts on your homepage?
If you have the normal get_posts (or whatever it’s called, normal query on the default theme home page) then all you need to do it what you did: click the Sticky under post-status, and Publish or Save the post. It will appear first regardless of chronology.
if you have a custom query that might change what happens
Dgold- I’m using a modified version of Kubrick on WP2. My modifications are mostly cosmetic and I’m certain that I never tweaked the code on the “index.php” file which is what I assume you’re refrering to. Right now, after I click the “Sticky” box there is no effect; The post I designate as “sticky” does not stay in the top position of the page. Hmmmmm???

I think there’s another sticky plugin you can try?
Also – just making sure – you click the Sticky and then Save (re-save) the post?
Dgold- Yes… The post was saved/resaved.
Any idea what the other sticky plugin is called? I’ve searched but could only find “Adhesive.”
Thanks!!! DB~
DB, I’m not sure of the name. I checked again and Adhesive appears to still work for me, and I don’t know what is making it malfunction for you.
Can anyone else think of another plugin?
Dgold- Thanks for trying. Maybe someone else will come up with the other plugin.

I’m pretty sure there’s a couple of others. There’s something in chaitgear’s pack (http://chait.net/) and a simple search through the posts plugins section on Plugins turns up Sticky…. http://wordpress.org/support/10/7128
Could this be the problem, cielogrande?
I found there is now a Configuration page for Adhesive, you can get to it in WP Admin > Plugins > next to Adhesive where it normally says Activate/Deactivate there is a “Configuration” link.
It has this:
Categories Only:
Causes Adhesive to display sticky posts only when viewing categories, and not also on the home page.
