## Description

After installing and activating, there will be a Category Sticky meta box on the
Edit Post page. Add categories where you want the post you’re editing to be sticky
and update the post, and you’re done.

When displayed as sticky posts in a category listing, posts will have a ‘category_sticky_post’
class added to them for additional styling.

Note that this plugin uses the “the_posts” filter. This means you can set a post
sticky for a category that it doesn’t belong to, and it will show on that category
when the archive is viewed.

Sidebar widgets will also reflect the sticky order when an archive is being viewed.
