Hi,
is it possible to specify the order in which sticky topics are displayed? I have some forums with 5 sticky topics and would like to see one topic in particular at the top of each forum.
Thanks

I guess you'll have to unstick the topics and then make them sticky again in a particular order. I had exactly the same problem... but with moderators. To get them listed in the right order I basically had to remove all of them and then add them in reverse order. Never had this problem in UBBC... <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Stickies display at the top, then would go after reply date, so they will change order and move up if someone replies to one.

I'm having trouble doing this in 7.5.

What exactly is the best way to order sticky topics?

Thanks.

Other than being in the wrong forum that is a interesting question. laugh
I would guess the stickys are sorted by timestamp like regular posts.
But maybe not.

Myself I have never had more that two stickies at a time and never bothered to see how it is sorted.

I'm pretty sure they're sorted based on what the forum sort order is, only they're on top...

-sticky sorted 1
sticky sorted 2
sticky sorted 3
-topic sorted 1
etc etc etc

the sort would be whatever the forum sort order is setup as in the cp...
