  Hi,

  The post, titled “What a Difference (Six Sentence Story) and Good Fences,” at the top of your blog page/front page, is marked “Featured.” On the Twenty Sixteen theme this occurs only on posts that are marked sticky. So, despite your claim to the contrary, the evidence strongly suggests that the post is marked sticky.

  Thanks, I’ve gone back over and over and checked, and the toggle that says “stick to front page” is not on. In fact, i turned it on and off several times. No change, and i don’t know what else to do.

  I assume you clicked on “Publish” top right to make the changes “stick” ?

  Yes, i have. The “stick to front” wasn’t clicked to begin, and i’ve tried turning it on, hitting publish, then turning it off, hitting publish. No change.

  This is the kind of stuff that happens to me, really weird stuff that no one can figure out. Thank you so much for the advice, i really do appreciate it.
