I know this would be a difficult question to ask but what about a way to add something that triggers the image to display?

I have a loop set up like. This is what happens when a normal post is shown:

<div=toppost>
One post
</div>

If two stickies are enabled, it goes to this:
<div=topcolumn>
1st post 2nd Post
</div>

Both will show an image attached to the post. Are there other options to change the image. Like from ‘medium’ in one post to thumbnail in the two stickies?

This is the full text of index.php:

Thanks. Hope this clears up some confusion,

I did solve my problem but the style of the post is stilled messed up.

For example, when two posts are shown, the html looks like this:

<div class="topcolumn">
Steve Jobs resigns<div class="topcolumn">
East Coast battens down as Hurricane Irene hits</div>
<script src="http://alttv.net/wp-includes/js/admin-bar.js?ver=20110131" type="text/javascript"></script>

		footer
</div>

This is what the code looks like on index.php:

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php $displayed = $post->ID;?>
<?php if( $wp_query->post_count >=2 ) : ?>
<div class="topcolumn">
<?php else : ?>
<div class="toppost">
<?php endif; ?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

What I want the loop to look like is if the loop has two posts (stickies), it looks like this:

<div class="topcolumn">
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
</div>

Thanks for all help, it is greatly appreciated.

what template is this?

index.php

what is the result so far?
does it do what you expect?

I add the code above and it didn’t change the div like I wanted it to do.

i am not sure what you intend:
you check for the number of posts first (before there is a loop), then add a query with ‘posts_per_page’ set to 1, and a loop; is that on purpose?

The query is configured to show the first post, unless stickies are enabled, then it shows all sticky posts.

I’ll propose another question: Is there a way to check for stickies and display a separate code instead of the one I provided in pastbin?

What about checking if it’s the only post? I’m not a PHP programmer and only depend on looking to see if other people have solved the same problem as me.

Example:
If one post, use div=one
If two posts, use div=two
