Sticky Posts
WordPress blogs display posts in reverse chronological order, with the most recent post at the top. You can mark a post as Sticky to pin it to the top, making it appear above the other posts. Sticky posts will stay at the top of your list of posts as long as they are marked as sticky.
To mark a post as sticky:
- Visit the post settings.
- Under Summary, look for the checkbox Stick to the top of the blog.
- Tick the box.
- Click Update or Publish to save the change.
Only public posts can be set as sticky. Private posts are not compatible with this feature.
Sticky posts may appear highlighted in some way, depending on the theme you’re using. For example, some themes display sticky posts with a colored background behind the title.
Generally, the Sticky option is only used for one or two posts on a blog. It should not be used for every post. Be sure to uncheck the Sticky option on that post to move it back to its place in chronological order.
