the plug in looks good but I’m guessing you have to change the font size in EVERY post – I have over 80!! I was hoping for some help in changing the source code to set the default font size so I don’t have to do it for each post individually. but this plug in will come in handy for other uses. Thanks

If you create a post and insert your image – then before you publish in the ‘publish’ box on the top right, click on Edit next to ‘Visability’ and check the box ‘stick this post to the front page’ On most themes, this will force this post to be on top so if your post is just an image (also set your pic as the featured image) then your image will be at the top I did something similar but I am now testing other themes. Still can’t find the perfect one so I’ll go back to News Stream and try to edit. But I’m getting sick of the slider now!

I am looking for the same. I have it now with the Twenty Ten theme but I want a cleaner/fresher look with more options for fonts/colours but I haven’t found another theme that gives me the sticky in full and the rest in excerpt. For Twenty Ten I achieved this on a post by post basis. When you create/edit a post you have options for the format. I made the ‘sticky’ post STANDARD and all my other posts are GALLERY. THis gives me the full text for the sticky and the rest have one image and an excerpt.

Again I would love to achieve this with another theme – or I suppose I can try and edit the code in Twenty Ten to give me the colours/fonts I want; I would have to learn to do this though.

Here is my page – right now it is Twenty Ten but my change as I play around. https://www.healthyedinburgh.com
