This plugin adds a “Stick this to the front page” checkbox on the admin add/edit entry page of selected custom post types.
Set options to enable in Settings → Reading. Unless you’re using custom queries to display your sticky posts, you probably want to check the option to add selected post types to the blog home.
Note: Sticky custom posts are stored in the global ‘sticky_posts’ option field, just like regular posts.

The plugin displays a checkbox in the publish meta box to feature a post. The checkbox only appears on admin selected post types which can be selected in the Settings->Writing screen.
When a post is designated as featured:
<ul>
<li>It receives ‘featured’ and <code>featured-{$posttype}</code> classes via the post_class filter.</li>
<li>Shows featured posts as such in the post type’s admin screen</li>
<li>Assigns a post a hidden taxonomy term (featured) that can easily be queried.</li>
</ul>
Note: For the plugin to work on attachments, you must be using 3.5 or above. All other features will work on 3.1.0 and up.
