Sticky posts in layout builder

[KEXINO]

Hi there,

Is there a way for the layout builder to honor ‘sticky’ posts?

In other words, for a post marked as sticky to appear at the top of the list of recent posts, regardless of the date of the sticky post?

Hello @KEXINO,

Thanks for writing in!

The sticky post should display at the top of the list in your layout builder.

If nothing is helping, provide us access to your site so that we can check your settings. Please create a secure note with the following info:
– Link to your site
– WP login URL
– WP username
– WP password
– WP Administrator Role
- Confirmation that we can access and make changes to your site
​

Best Regards.

Hi there,

Sticky note definitely not working correctly from here. The second most recent post has been tagged as a Sticky Note, but appears in the second position on the list of posts.

I’ve tried clearing caches, etc. without success.

Secure Note with login creds is attached.

Hello @KEXINO,

Please update your Pro theme to 4.2.2 first. The sticky posts should display when using the Recent Post as your Looper Provider. Meanwhile, in your archive layout, you do not need to have a Looper Provider because on the archive page there is already a loop running in the background. All you need is a Looper Consumer.

Kindly let us know how it goes after your updates. Thanks.

That worked! Thanks so much.
