Serendipity Forums

Hi
I am new to your script and it looks quite good.
I have a question though:

Is it possible to set a specific entry to be at the top of the page, say with a welcome message [I have some text message + a picture & want the new entries to be below them] or if not, is there anyway of creating a form of "front page" with static content?

Thanks in advance.

Hi!

Yes, this is what we call "Sticky Entries". You can stickify an entry if you install/activate the plugin "Extended options for entries" (serendipity_event_entryproperties). Then when you create an entry you have a checkbox "Sticky entry" below the extended entry body that you can check.

The other way to create fixed frontpages is by using the "Static Page" event plugin (available on http://spartacus.s9y.org/ or via the spartacus event plugin).

A last way is that you can also edit the index.tpl template file of your template directory and put any content you like in there. This is the most performant option, but also the most cumbersome if you don't know much of the .tpl template files

HTH,
