Sticky Post Help in WordPress

Sticky Posts in WordPress

Sticky posts, will let you bump a story to the top of the homepage – without the need of editing the time stamp over and over again.  This is handy for me, because with the Web Hosting Show’s site, I wanted to keep the most recent podcast pinned to the top of WebHostingShow.com – with new content following bellow it.  With a little template editing, WordPress interface knowledge and some hard work – you can do the same.

How to Get Started with Sticky Posts

The best guide thus far on how to use this WordPress feature that was introduced back in WordPress 2.7 is Nathan Rice’s Definitive Sticky Posts Guide.  Here you can learn how to make a post sticky from within WordPress, and how to edit your theme’s templates to reflect the changes.

Show More Than One Sticky Post

What if you want to get more than just one sticky post in your WordPress blog?  Then you might need to check out how to get the latest sticky posts via WPRecipies.com.  That have a code snippet up that goes right before the loop, that retrieves X most recent sticky posts.

All in all, it is a fun weekend side project to try out – if your looking to add a little something special to your WordPress powered web site.

    This is getting a bit more subjective, but I significantly choose the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool functions like ‘Mixview’ that let you rapidly see connected albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on 1 of those will center on that item, and an additional set of “neighbors” will appear into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find other people with shared tastes and becoming close friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist developed based on an amalgamation of what all your buddies are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Individuals concerned with privacy is going to be relieved to understand you’ll be able to avoid the public from seeing your personal listening habits in case you so select.
