AStickyPostOrderER lets you customize the order in which posts are displayed per category, per tag, or over-all, in WordPress 2.3+ blog.
Useful when using WordPress as a Content Management System.
Now with the ability to override itself.
<h4>How to:</h4>
Once the plugin is installed, go to “Tools”, “AStickyPostOrderER”.
The plugin displays a list of your categories as well as a list of tags in use. 
The category and tag names are links (used to make ‘Sorties’) each followed by radio buttons and a Limit field.
Sorties: Click a category or tag’s name below to manually create an order of some or all of its contained posts to be shown before the default ordered posts in that category or tag, or re-arange all posts as they apear on home(index) and archive pages.
(Please Note: You have to individually set order for each category or sub category you want to order posts in, if enough people express it as a requirement I’ll add functionality for the plugin to propagate order set in the index view to either all- or specific categories tags. Mail me if you need this.)
AND / OR
Meta: Use the radio buttons to specify meta-stickyness, respectively:
<ol>
<li>
Super-sticky: Show before anything else (you can set a limit for how many posts from this cat or tag should be given this preferential treatment, e.g. if you want the latest post with the tag ‘events’ to show before anything else in any category listing that contains that post place 1 in the text field next to the ‘events’ tag and set it’s radio button set to ‘Super-sticky’ )
</li>
<li>
Sub-sticky: Show after individually ordered posts (‘Sorties’) for given view but before un-sorted posts
</li>
<li>
Default: Treat normally (except for individually ordered posts)
</li>
<li>
Droppy: Show only after everything else 
and remember to click ‘update meta-stickyness’ at the bottom of the page for your changes to, ahemmm, ‘stick’ . . .
</li>
</ol>
<h4>Override</h4>
If you want to have posts listed without the customised order you can do that by having ‘?aspo=vanilla’ in the url, or if you created a listing with query_posts add aspo=vanilla, eg. ‘query_posts(‘cat=13&showposts=10&aspo=vanilla’);’

Sticky Posts – Switch

Thank you for sharing your work. I was looking for a way my editors could stick a post in a featured spot in the homepage and found this simple tool to do it flawlessly. It's easier than stick a post in the edit post screen or through quick edit, you just have to tick it once. So neat.

Handy and simple

Saved me a few hours! Thank you very much!

Good!

I was just getting ready to implement this myself. Very happy you saved me the trouble! The ability to click the stars in the admin interface is also a super nice addition. Wonderful work! Thank you so much!

PRO tip: Although, I couldn't find it documented anywhere, as a developer you can get a list of all the sticky posts with get_option('sticky_posts')

much developer love

Really the plugin is very helpful that saves me 10 hours of work!



Just Awesome!


I'd hate to leave a negative review, but the owner turned off the support function and provides no method to contact.  The Plugin Works, but it doesn't respect Custom Post Types.  All Stickies in the Posts section become stickies in all other custom post types.  So in our case a Posts Sticky is now showing in our CPT "Forums"


No Support, and Plugin Doesn't Work With CPT

This plugin adds a sticky post switch functionality to the admin list post/custom post type pages.
