I wrote a WordPress plugin to handle in a different way the sticky posts, i.e. as recommended stories with links into a jQuery animated box.<\/p>\n

Installation can be done\u00a0using: WordPress.org plugin repository<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Admins can select four parameters:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. the *percent of vertical scroll* where the animated box appears<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. the *number* of recent sticky posts to list<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. if the posts have thumbnail there is an option to turn on \/ turn off the *thumbnail theme capability*<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. since the sticky posts are presented this way, maybe there is no need to keep them on the front page anymore, so the third option allows to *disable the sticky property of posts in the main loops*<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Other features<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. when displaying a post that is sticky, the corresponding link is eliminated from the animated box<\/li>\n
    2. if the sticky posts list remains empty, the animated box is not displayed anymore<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      == Installation ==<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Upload `recstory.zip` to the `\/wp-content\/plugins\/` directory<\/li>\n
      2. Unzip the archive<\/li>\n
      3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        == Frequently Asked Questions ==<\/p>\n

        The animated box is not animated, it just appears at all times<\/strong>
        \nThis is most probable a jQuery conflict with the theme or with another plugin. Try to switch to the default theme and \/ or disable other plugins.<\/p>\n
