WordPress Plugin: WP-Sticky
ADVERTISEMENTS
WP-Sticky is a WordPress Plugin that allows you to put up a post (or posts) before all other posts on your blog’s homepage. The plugin is a modified version of Adhesive which is currently not compatible with the latest version of WordPress.
WP-Sticky is useful when you want to make an announcement on your blog or when you want to make sure that your blog’s visitors see any particular post.
Installation of the plugin is easy, simply upload the folder ’sticky’ to the plugins folder and activate it. Once the installation is over, configure the WP-Sticky options in WP-Admin -> Options -> Sticky. You can find the post’s ‘Sticky‘ Option under ‘Post Sticky Status‘ Options in the ‘Write/Edit Post Screen‘.
There are three options - Announcement, Sticky and Normal
Difference between Announcement Posts and Sticky Posts
Posts marked as ’sticky’ will only stay on top of all the posts which is posted on the same day as the sticky post whereas posts marked as ‘announcement’ will stay on top of all posts.
You may want to read this post by the plugin author if you have not understood the difference.

What’s the difference between WP-Sticky and StickyPosts plugins? Anyone use either of them and which one is better?
Thanks!

Another great find. I hadn’t heard of StickyPosts (nor WP-sticky), both sound like they’re worth checking out, my pseudo-static homepage could do with something like this to allow me to embed a dynamic message ahead of the daily post.

I’ve been using WP-Sticky for a few weeks now to good effect. It’s an easy way to give an old post a new lease on life without having to republish it.

I’ve installed this, following the instructions. I made the first post a sticky, but it doesn’t work. The subsequent posts go on top of it.
Nice thought tho!
