  Hi – I want my ‘Wordwatch’ post to stay at the top of the list and have marked it as ‘sticky’ – however, this has made no difference to its place in the listings. Any advice? Thanks.x

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You have only a “welcome page. You do not have a post page (where all posts are in reverse chronological order). That is why you don’t see the sticky post. The sticky post sticks to the top of the main posts page – which you do not have. It does not stick to the top of categories, tags or archives pages.

  Thank you – I suspect I am being very dense, but how do I get a post page? Ta.x

  It’s covered in the support document for creating a static front page: http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ . You have to create a “posts” page and then set it as the “posts” page at settings > reading.
