Sticky posts display on home page only

Hey NCATIT,

Thank you for the inquiry.

You can add a condition at the very top of the avia_post_slide_query_mod function to filter out other pages. Example:

if(!is_home() || !is_front_page()) return $query;

Hi,

Thank you for the update.

Please try this code in the functions.php file:

function av_exclude_sticky_posts_from_category($query) {
    if ($query->is_category()) {
        $query->set('ignore_sticky_posts', true);
    }
}
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'av_exclude_sticky_posts_from_category');

Best regards,

Hi,

Thank you for the update.

Are you trying to suppress the sticky posts on the backend? Category is a type of taxonomy, so the changes above should affect the category pages. We may need to check the actual category page and access the dashboard to properly check the modification. Please provide the login details in the private field.

Hi,

Thank you for the info.

We edited the functions.php file and adjusted the filter to keep the sticky posts on the front page and disable them on the category pages.

function exclude_sticky_posts_from_category_pages_filter($query) {
    if (is_admin()) {
        return $query;
    }

    if (is_front_page()) {
        $include = array();
        $sticky = get_option('sticky_posts');
        $args = array(
            'post__not_in' => $sticky,
            'category__in' => array(4, 31, 51, 52),
        );

        $posts = get_posts($args);

        foreach ($posts as $post) {
            $include[] = $post->ID;
        }

        $include = array_merge($sticky, $include);
        $include = array_map('intval', $include);

        $query['post__in'] = $include;
        $query['orderby'] = 'post__in';
        return $query;
    }

    if (is_category()) {
        $sticky_posts = get_option('sticky_posts');

        if (!empty($sticky_posts)) {
            $query['post__not_in'] = $sticky_posts;
        }
    }

    return $query;
}

add_filter('avia_post_slide_query', 'exclude_sticky_posts_from_category_pages_filter');

Please make sure to delete the cache before checking the pages.

Best regards,
Ismael
