This is nice info, i am learning some wp.
Thats great. It will help you.
Abhi, we can also do it with use of plugins as well
Although, really nice tip.
When I was quite new to WordPress I did not know this, later on I discovered. This will be pretty useful to newbies
@Ramesh why use plugin when we have inbuilt option.
Kewl! Your tip gave me an idea to include a featured post section in my new skin.
I didn’t know that. I’ll give it a try. But does all themes support this?
@Sree it will work with all themes.
Otherwise, you can try out some featured contents plugins like FCG or DCG. And there are many. After all not all themes are show sticky post on homepage.
Finally figured it out. Thanks!
So that how they do it! Thank you very much for posting this!
