Sticky posts only

Hey @kaichi

I’ll put this as a feature request and hopefully we can get this added.

If you are comfortable with a little PHP and WP actions + filters, I can point you in the right direction to achieve this (without waiting for our update)?

Thanks

Hello @codeamp,
Yes please, if you can help me with PHP and WP actions will be great.

Thank you!
Regards,
Kai

Hey @kaichi

You can use our query_args filter, to modify the query, found here:
https://customlayouts.com/documentation/action-filter-reference/

And combine it with the info from this stack exchange post:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/19814472/459359

And you should end up with code that looks like:

function layout_query_args( $query_args ) {
	// Get sticky posts from DB
	$sticky_posts = get_option('sticky_posts');
	
	if ( ! empty( $sticky_posts ) ) {
		// Modify the query
		$query_args['post__in'] = $sticky_posts;
	}
	// Always return in WP filters
	return $query_args;
}

add_filter( 'custom-layouts/layout/query_args', 'layout_query_args', 10 );

Note- I didn’t get to test this – but in principal everything looks correct.

Best

@codeamp Thanks a lot! This is exactly what I need and the script works as intended without any modification.
