Why do you not support Sticky Posts?

Hello,

I have searched the forum and discovered you cannot check the Sticky Post checkbox in the backend to assign it to a block. Instead you have to find out the ID and enter it manually every time. This is insane for a theme mainly for use as news sites/blogs.

Surely it’s easy enough for you guys to add it.

Hello,

If you want this option, then it can be implemented with custom work. Also, you can try to use this option https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-posts-2/

Thank you!

I think this is worth adding to the list of feature suggestions.

Ideally, it would be great to have an option in the filter panel of flex blocks to ‘show sticky posts.’ Whereby sticky posts are shown first, followed by the other filters as normal.

Would be helpful in allowing authors the ability to pin posts, without needing to access or change page templates.

With this option (https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-posts-2/) only Featured posts will be shown, but the requirement is we need to show the featured post first followed by other posts.

This is a default wordpress feature but the newspaper theme is blocking it. When we check the sticky post check box, the post is not becoming sticky just because newspaper theme is not considering that option it seems.

Hi,

You can set post id in the filter tab to have a post sticky all the time on that block -> https://i.imgur.com/3uVxMOD.png

Post id is filter is behaving in the same manner as featured post filter. Here only the post which we are specifing in the filter alone displaying. But we need to display all other posts too.

The problem is I need only 3 posts to be sticky, in that case one box will be empty.

Hello,

You can use flex block 1 and set the layout to 3 and the limit to 3 posts https://i.imgur.com/TFfWNpV.png

I don’t want 3 posts to appear in single row. I need only 2 posts to appear in single row like this (https://imgur.com/a/ta6Wsv8)

Hi,

Ok, then set only two there.

Thank you!

if I set 2 there then one box will be empty in the second row right. Because I need 3 posts to be sticky.

You are not getting my point. I need to make 3 posts as sticky and all other posts needs to be displayed normally. If I create separate block for sticky my layout wont be correct. Because in 1st row 2 sticky posts will be displayed, in 2nd row one sticky post will be display and in all other rows 2 posts will be displayed. So the second row wont look good. Because there will be one empty column in it since there are only 3 sticky post. Hope you got my point.
