Category talk:Stickied threads

Sticky threads
How does this category relate to Forum:Sticky threads (which "currently" says we can't have any)? — Robin Patterson (Talk) 03:01, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Where does it say you cant have any? The DPL forums just are just a list of pages in a specific category. If you want a stickied thread, just setup your own 2nd category, called... something like "stickied threads" and add it to that category too, and just make another DPLforum call at the top of your forum index page to list pages that are in forum WHATEVER AND "Stickied threads". Its exactly whats done on Forum:Help_desk/elsewhere. A good idea would be to build into your forum header template something where you could just add  and let the template take care of it. --Uberfuzzy 09:00, 14 May 2009 (UTC)


 * It says we can't, where I said it did. "Nope, I think this isn't possible with DPLforum extension. And it's just good MediaWiki isn't like some forum software, it's good to keep them separated. :) --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 18:54, 29 April 2007 (UTC)" The replies from other users below that were interesting but didn't look like disagreement. However, now that I compare what you've said above with what Cizagna said, I think you're both giving me the answer I really wanted. Thank you for making the effort so promptly. Let's put it on a help page! I've just tried to put a note with links to this page and the abovementioned forum, but of course I got "... The following text is what triggered our spam filter: help talk:forums". I'll see if I can put it somewhere acceptable. But maybe I'll just adapt your above reply for a new paragraph on the help page and let you tidy it up if necessary. — Robin Patterson (Talk) 12:35, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
