Voulez-vous afficher vos publications les plus importantes en haut de la page de votre blog afin que les gens les voient en premier ?
Une publication épinglée épinglera le haut de la page de votre blog. Même si vous publiez de nouveaux articles, cette publication ne descendra pas et sera toujours mise en avant.
Dans cet article, nous allons vous afficher comment faire facilement des publications épinglées dans WordPress.
Qu’est-ce qu’une publication épinglée dans WordPress ?
Une publication épinglée est une publication qui s’épingle en haut de la page de votre blog WordPress. Contrairement à vos publications habituelles, il reste sur la première page de votre blog jusqu’à ce que vous retiriez son option épinglée.
Par défaut, WordPress affiche les publications les plus récentes en premier. Au fur et à mesure que vous ajoutez du contenu, vos publications plus anciennes diminuent et finissent par être placées dans les archives.
Cela signifie que les internautes ont moins de chances de trouver cette publication de blog, à moins qu’ils n’atterrissent dessus dans les résultats de recherche ou qu’ils ne parcourent tous les articles de votre site WordPress.
Mais que se passerait-il si vous vouliez afficher vos articles piliers sur la page d’accueil pendant plus longtemps ? C’est là que la fonctionnalité des publications épinglées de WordPress prend tout son sens.
Quand utiliser une publication épinglée WordPress ?
Une publication épinglée est utile pour mettre en avant le contenu important de votre blog. Il vous permet de mettre en avant vos meilleurs articles sur la première page de votre blog, quelle que soit leur date de publication.
Il existe principalement deux types de contenu que vous pouvez épingler sur la page d’accueil de votre blog.
1. Le meilleur contenu (articles piliers) de votre blog
Les articles piliers constituent le contenu le plus important de votre site. Ils comprennent des articles approfondis, des guides complets et vos publications les plus populaires.
Ils constituent le meilleur moyen de faire découvrir votre blog à de nouveaux utilisateurs/utilisatrices, de générer des prospects et d’augmenter le nombre de pages vues. Vous voudrez les mettre en évidence sur l’ensemble de votre site pour vous assurer que les utilisateurs/utilisatrices nouveaux puissent trouver ces articles.
Par exemple, vous avez peut-être écrit une publication de blog complète couvrant un Sujet spécifique dans les moindres détails. Cet article sera très utile à vos utilisateurs/utilisatrices, et vous pourriez vouloir l’épingler au sommet.
2. Contenu critique par pertinence temporelle
Un autre type de publication que vous pourriez vouloir rendre épinglé est le contenu pertinent dans le temps, comme les mises à jour de produits, les annonces, les cadeaux, et plus encore.
Si vous avez annoncé une mise à jour importante de votre produit sur votre blog, vous voudrez que vos utilisateurs/utilisatrices la voient le plus tôt possible. De même, si vous organisez un jeu-concours pendant un mois, vous voudrez que tout le monde le voie avant qu’il n’expire.
Une fois que la pertinence temporelle de la publication a expiré, vous pouvez alors la remplacer par de nouveaux posts épinglés.
Ceci étant dit, voyons comment rendre facilement vos publications épinglées dans WordPress.
Comment rendre les publications WordPress épinglées (2 façons)
WordPress est doté d’une fonctionnalité intégrée permettant d’épingler n’importe quelle publication à la première page, ce qui signifie que vous n’aurez pas besoin d’installer d’extension WordPress pour cela.
Tous les thèmes WordPress standard supportent cette fonctionnalité et mettent en évidence la publication épinglée sur la page d’accueil ou la page du blog.
Tout d’abord, vous devez ouvrir l’éditeur de blocs et modifier la publication que vous souhaitez rendre épinglée ou en créer une nouvelle.
Sur l’écran de modification de la publication, vous devez ouvrir la colonne latérale de droite, où vous verrez les paramètres de votre publication.
Dans les Réglages du « Résumé », il vous suffit de cocher la case située à côté de « Epingler en haut du blog ».
Confirmez ensuite la mise à jour ou la publication de votre publication.
Voilà, c’est fait ! Votre publication épinglera désormais la page d’accueil de votre blog jusqu’à ce que vous retiriez le crochet.
Si vous souhaitez rendre une publication plus ancienne épinglée, suivez les mêmes étapes et cliquez simplement sur le bouton « Mettre à jour » en haut de la page.
Vous pouvez également rendre les publications plus anciennes épinglées grâce à la fonctionnalité de modification rapide.
Il vous suffit de vous rendre sur la page » Publications » Tous les messages depuis votre zone d’administration et de rechercher le titre du message concerné. Ensuite, vous devez cliquer sur l’option » Modification rapide » qui se trouve en dessous.
Ensuite, vous verrez les options de modification rapide, y compris un case à cocher de publication épinglée en bas à droite.
Vous devez cocher la case et cliquer sur le bouton « Mettre à jour » ci-dessous.
Vous pouvez également l’appliquer à vos brouillons non publiés pour les rendre épinglés une fois qu’ils seront publiés.

My (old) sticky post doesn’t show on the homepage or the category page.
I’m using the classic editor and followed the steps in the tutorial, but although it says it’s sticky, the behaviour of the post hasn’t changed?
WPBeginner Support says
You may want to reach out to the support for your specific theme to see if your theme has a custom styling that is a bit odd.

Hi,
Thanks for this info. I am looking for a new way to create a sticky post on a category page, so not on the homepage. I used a plugin for this but I got notified from Wordfence that it hasn’t been updated in 3 years so I better look for another solution. Do you have any suggestion for this?
Thanks

well, but, that sticky, will now show up even in Featured Posts Slider, even if you don’t want it there, even if it doesn’t belong there (the post that was made a sticky was not designated as a featured post) so if it’s a note meant to go at the top of one particular category, it now will always show as featured image #1 in the featured posts slider, and #1 in the recents posts, etc…. I don’t suppose there is a way to keep that sticky, just on one particular blog feed category,

Thank you very much
Janelle says
The video on my post does not show up on the home page. Only the title. I made it sticky but it doesn’t play – although it does on the other page. Any ideas?
becca puglisi says
Hi there. Thank you for this. A question: can I do this for a Draft post, so it will always appear in the top of my Drafts but not actually on my blog itself? I have a template that I use every week, and I always have to scroll down through the posts to find it, so it would be nice for it to be at the top of the page for me to see. But I don’t want my readers to see it because it’s just a draft.
Thanks!
Alex Muiruri says
Yup. Actually, when you make your post sticky, it falls into another category far from the drafts, published, all and Trash. SO it will become easier to find it.

Hiya,
Great Post.
So i tried sticking a post and after a while i « unsticked » the post.
But then the post seem to have disappeared, i can only see the title and the comments.
The post content itself is gone. I’ve tried editing in the back end, but there’s nothing, my content is just gone.
Have you heard of this before? Could you help fix this? *weeps*

Hi, tnks for this very helpful post and comments.
Does anyone know how to grant WordPress authors permissions to make a post sticky?
I don’t want to make the author an editor, only make that « sticky post » checkbox visible.

Viola says
Ok,
After searching for so many helpful posts about the sticky option, i just couldn’t see it anymore.
Then i saw the words: « WP Admin » in one of the comments of this post and that immediately got me going at first. YEP I needed to see WP ADMIN. and I knew exactly what i had been doing wrong all this time.
I am more visual
So after I finally was able to remove the sticky post, I came back to reread this post and watch the video more carefully and:
This whole post is very helpful!!!
Reposting it on my blog for somewhere in the future, if i forget about sticky posts again
thank you so much ^_^

The format has been changed and under visibility public, there is no « sticking to the front » kind of thing for me, is there another way?

There is an Edit link right next to Visibility: Public option. Clicking on that Edit link will reveal the option to make a post sticky.

Sorry but in my admin there is no link or whatsoever. I have tree tick box and that’s it.
I have an old post sticked (stuck ?) and can’t remove it.
Any other option ? I’m hosted directly on wordpress.com

Would love to try but don’t know what that mean
Thanks

You have to login through Wp Admin option, then you will have extended dashboard where you can find posts and edit from there, there is the option for it.
Viola says
Oh this one is helpful.
I have tried everything I saw at first glance on the support page. Signing in as WP Admin was the BEST solution
Thank you.
Jeff Potter says
I have a post marked sticky. I want to unstick it. I have a new post I want to make sticky. There are zero options for doing any of this. Very frustrating. Some comments here have remarked on this. Can anyone help us? I am using a standard, basic free blog template. I have googled this. No help. None of the dashboard images look like mine. I have 3 options under Visibility — no edit option. This is a crazy waste of time!!!!
WPBeginner Support says
You need to just edit the old post that you want to unstick. In the publish meta box just above the update button you would see the edit link. You may also want to check out how to add an expiration date to sticky posts.

I can’t open Edit in Public Visibily to make my latest post sticky.Is it because I have too many sticky posts ? (39) If it is I still need to open edit to unstick some earlier ones. Thank you in advance for any help in solving this.
Ivor says
I can’t open the visibility public edit feature to make a post sticky.Can you have too many sticky posts (39) ? If it is that how can I unsticky some when I can’t open edit ? Thank you.
WPBeginner Support says
You can have as many sticky posts as you want. You can edit a post and remove the sticky check from the post to make it unstick. Alternately you can also set an expiration date for sticky posts in WordPress.

My Visibility button no longer has an option to make apost sticky t the top. Did you change something? I used to have that ability – now its gone.

I also can’t see it – under « visibility », there are only 3 options now: « public, private and password protected ».
I made my last post sticky and now when I publish something new it doesn’t come up on top and there is no way no edit it.
Please help

I have the same problem as Guy and Desi. Under visibility there are only 3 options “public, private and password protected” and none of them allow me to make a post sticky. I was able to have one sticky post and none after that. The theme I use is « The Dyad Theme. »

Is there a way to change the sticky note text (it says « featured »)? And if so, is there a way to have the option to change the text for single sticky notes, instead of all of them?

DON COBB says
I get how to make a post sticky, but that sticky post only shows as a title, not an article. One must click on it to read it. I would like the sticky post to show the whole article, like every other post. Is that possible? Thanks in advance…
WPBeginner Support says
The appearance of sticky posts depends on your WordPress theme and how it handles sticky posts. If this is how your theme displays sticky posts, then you will need to edit theme files to show full content. Ask your theme author for support before making any changes to the theme yourself.

Graeme Voigt says
Is it possible to publish a post to my home page that CAN’T be clicked on? My masonry theme has an option to publish a post that appears as a quote on the home page. The only thing is, I don’t want users to click on this quote and be taken to a random page that only contains one sentence! I want the posts to appear on the home page just as some inspiration – not a link to a page.
Thanks for any help!

I want my chosen posts as sticky in homepage permanently.I don’t want additional posts to be visible in home page.
Also can 5 or more pages be made sticky.
BrianL51 says
I have created a sticky post as a welcome note explaining what my site is about, and how best to use it. It’s been at the top of the tree for over a week, above more recent posts. Just how I wanted it to be. Today when I login, the sticky post is #2 in the list, under a more recent post that was below it yesterday. I’ve found nothing to explain this. The sticky post is still the only one with the sticky box checked. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what’s going on, and how to stop it happening? (For now, I plan to make the post non-sticky, and then make it sticky again. Fingers crossed, but even if that works it’s hardly ideal.)
WPBeginner Staff says
Go to Appearance -> Widgets and remove the recent posts widget. You can add it back whenever you want by simply dragging and dropping it to the same sidebar.
BrianL51 says
Hi, I already found the way to make a post sticky, but there’s another problem. A link to the new sticky post appears in the Recent Posts list on my sidebar, but clicking it results in one of those « Shucks, this is embarrassing isn’t it » messages because the link somehow can’t find anything to point to. Any suggestions? After another five or so regular posts, this dead link will drop off the bottom of the list anyway, but I’m curious to know if it can be fixed.
WPBeginner Staff says
Try adding another sticky post with different title. See if you can reproduce the error.
BrianL51 says
Many thanks for your prompt reply and for your suggestion, but… this is a live site I’m editing. If I manage to reproduce the error I’ll wind up with two dead links in my ‘recent posts’ list. As far as I can see, I don’t have UX access to edit the list of recent posts. If you can tell me I’m wrong, and how I can delete entries from the list, then I’ll happily experiment with the sticky post problem.
Tim says
In Genesis, it’s turned off.
Kate says
Hi, is it possible to have the sticky post just on one page? Without the CSS or programming code? Thanks!
Omniaural says
Oh dear. So simple, yet I never thought to look there!
WPBeginner Staff says
You can do so using CSS. WordPress automatically adds sticky class to the sticky posts. You can use that class in CSS to add your style rules. For example:
.sticky {
background-color:yellow;
border:1px solid #ccc;
padding:5px;
}
Terry says
How can I change the color of the sticky note?
WPBeginner Staff says
A sticky post will remain sticky until you publish another post and mark it as sticky or you manually uncheck the sticky post option.
Smiley says
Thank you

Thank you a lot guys for your great work, but please can you please answer these tow questions for me :
Does a sticky post stays sticky until I check the box?
and what happens if I have more than one sticky post?
Jen says
I am trying to do this on my posts, but can’t seem to find the sticky button? Does this feature no longer exist?
WPBeginner Staff says
It exists, but you need to click on the Edit link next to visibility under publish metabox to see it.
WPBeginner Staff says
You don’t need a plugin for that, this functionality comes built-in with WordPress
donmatrix says
but there is a plugin for that??
Dana says
I thought I wanted to have a static home page but realized what I really want is a cool content slider at the top… recent posts.. a little about me section. then all of my social media buttons instagram plugins and such…. Is this possible with a sticky post as the homepage?? Or what else can I try?
WPBeginner Support says
There are some free and premium WordPress themes that allow you to do all this easily. But if you want to do this without changing your theme, then still a sticky post is not the right way to do this.

Great article. I find WPBeginner to be a great resource!
Is there a way to assign a sticky post to a category? For example, I have set up a custom menu to include some categories as tabs on my navigation. When you click on the category on the nav bar, you are taken to a page that lists all the posts in that category. I would like the first post to be sticky. Can I do this?

Yes, you can do that
