sticky articles on home page
If a section is set with “on front page=yes”, why dont sticky articles of that particular section show up on the home section-preferably on top?
thanks

AFAIK, you’ll need an article_custom tag in your page/form handling the front page or add searchsticky="1" to your article tag’s attributes.

Re: sticky articles on home page
Kevin,
“on front page” means “on default section” (aka homepage), not “on section front page”.
Also, sticky articles won’t be output by default just using txp:article nor txp:article_custom. You may want to investigate net-carver’s suggestion.

If you specifically need the sticky articles above the others, then use <txp:article_custom status="sticky" /> in your page/form for the homepage just above the <txp:article /> tag.

Re: sticky articles on home page
use
<txp:article_custom status="sticky" />in your page/form for the homepage just above the<txp:article />tag.
Remember that this would also display sticky articles from sections that are set to not to be displayed on the front page, if any. Or, if used on a section home page, sticky articles from other sections. <txp:article status="sticky" /> would prevent that.
Edit: (OT) I love the favicon you made for Textbook :)
