Hello. I’ve looked at the post at https://kriesi.at/support/topic/sticky-post-with-post-filtered-by-category/ and tried the solution offered of adding a category called “sticky” and using an extra Blog Posts element to display the sticky category posts. The problem is that when there is not a sticky post (i.e., the admin doesn’t want any post to be sticky), the element displays “NOTHING FOUND Sorry, no posts matched your criteria”. I would prefer that the element be hidden if there are no posts in that category. Is there a way to do this, or is there another solution for having a sticky post in a Blog Posts element?
I tried using the Post Types Order plugin as suggested in another post in this forum. As far as I can tell, however, after setting the order, if I add a new post, that new post is going to be on top of the post I just set at the top using the plugin, so the solution doesn’t work.

Try deleting lines 293 – 391 in the /enfold/includes/loop-index.php file.
<article class="entry"> <header class="entry-content-header"> <h1 class='post-title entry-title'><?php _e('Nothing Found', 'avia_framework'); ?></h1> </header> <p class="entry-content" <?php avia_markup_helper(array('context' => 'entry_content')); ?>><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria', 'avia_framework'); ?></p> <footer class="entry-footer"></footer> </article>

I imagine that change would disappear with the next theme update. So should I use a child theme, and if so, do I need to create a loop-index.php file in the child theme folder, then add specific code while removing the lines you mentioned?

Yes you can add an “includes” folder to the child theme and copy that file to it and then delete the lines there.
Cheers!
