It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/lonely-sticky/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=1959136) # Lonely Sticky By [Andrea Gandino](https://profiles.wordpress.org/andg/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/lonely-sticky.zip) * [Details](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/lonely-sticky/#description) * [Reviews](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/lonely-sticky/#reviews) * [Installation](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/lonely-sticky/#installation) * [Development](https://pcd.wordpress.org/plugins/lonely-sticky/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/lonely-sticky/) ## Description By default, the plugin allows to have only one sticky post at a time, which means that when saving a post that has been flagged as sticky, it automatically unsticks other posts. Under `Settings` > `Lonely Sticky`, an option can be found that allows you to define how many sticky posts can exist at a time. For example, if a maximum of 3 posts is allowed, when saving a post that has been flagged as sticky, the two most recent sticky posts present (if any) will be kept as sticky, along the one that’s being saved. Setting the option to `0` will disable sticky posts completely. ## Installation 1. Upload the `lonely-sticky` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress ## FAQ No FAQ. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/158d9489f7eb30655e795af444ea0cb363bba04df5969daebc7666a1becb774c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Sweet and simple](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sweet-and-simple-18/)󠁿 [nadworks](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nadworks/) October 19, 2018 Exactly what I was looking for!

I suggested to make it sutable for more sticky posts. It was done within a day! Great plug-in. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9786181f2ac82df1c2b05de1899533eadab7a16b5e6f7462d0c11f6abe6af6bd? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works perfectly](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-perfectly-669/)󠁿 [Li-An](https://profiles.wordpress.org/li-an/) September 3, 2016 Does exactly what it says.
