Sticky Post not Sticking

Hello Folks,

I’m having trouble getting a post I’ve specified as sticky to stay at the top of the page.

The url for this page is: https://really-valid-info.com/blog/news/ At the moment the poist I’m trying to make sticky is thye second one down on the page.

My single.php template includes the following code:

<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<div id="alignleft"><?php previous_post_link('&laquo; %link') ?>
</div>
<div id="alignright"><?php next_post_link('%link &raquo;') ?>
</div>

<div <?php post_class() ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
	<h2 align="center"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>

As that didn’t work, I added <?php post_class(); ?>> to my index.php, but that also didn’t work and has produced class=”post hentry category-uncategorized”> onto the page itself.

I’ve messed up somewhere with the code, but not sure where.

Hope someone can advise.

Myles
