  I want to make a map post stick to the top of my projects page (a category in the top menu). I have found that you can do it with putting posts on the front page but I don’t want to do this… my blog is http://www.geokult-travel.com

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

  Hi there,

  Sticky posts can only be utilized on your main page.

  Perhaps we can devise another solution that would suit you?

  Here’s my idea: Did you know that your sidebar widgets can be made visible according to certain criteria? You could add your Map as an image, partial text from your original post, and a link to that post in a widget on the top of your sidebar. Then, you could create a rule that the widget would only be visible on your Projects category page.

  If you want to give that a try, take a look at how to set your widget’s visibility:

  Hope this helps! Many thanks.
