The sticky feature allows you to make a thread display at the top of forum thread list for the specified period of time.

  • If another thread is created on the post during this time, it will displayed under this post.
  • If this second (other) thread is also made sticky, the thread that was made sticky first will be displayed first, and so on.
  • Making one post sticky for a longer period than another post does not give a post precedence. For example, making one post sticky for three days does not bump it above a post that is only marked for stickiness one day. Only when the prior sticky thread expires will the next post appear at the top of the forum.
  • If you edit a sticky post, this moves it down in the post list.
