    Hi,

    Is there any way to highlight sticky posts in the blog with either changed font color or an automated addition to the post headline? I use the plugin Scheduled Content Action to remove the sticky feature at certain dates and I then want the highlighted part of the post to be removed and reverted to its original style.

    If found this at http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/3615/highlight-a-featured-post:

    To add some text to your featured posts and highlight them, add a function like this inside the loop in your index.php (or loop.php, etc., depending on your theme):
    if (is_sticky($post->ID)) echo ‘<span class=”featured”>Featured!</span>’;

    You can do the same thing with the css :before property, like this:
    div.sticky h2:before {
    content: “Featured! “;
    }

    (assuming you’re using h2’s to display the titles of your posts, and you want to add the text before the title)

    Hi kihlbaum!

    This CSS will change the post title color and add a “Featured!” to the beginning of the title.

    .sticky .post-title:before {
    content: "Featured!";
}
.sticky .post-title {
    color: red !important;
}

    Cheers!

    Hey!

    For that you’ll need to open up /enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/postslider.php and find line 289.

    $post_class = "post-entry post-entry-{$the_id} slide-entry-overview slide-loop-{$post_loop_count} slide-parity-{$parity} {$last}";

    And add this beneath it.

    if ( is_sticky( $entry->ID ) ) { $post_class .= ' sticky'; }

    And then use this CSS.

    .sticky .entry-title:before {
    content: "Featured!";
}
.sticky .entry-title {
    color: red !important;
}

    Cheers!
