FCG Version: 3.2.0
Been trawling the forum and net for a while now looking for a solution to my problem. My current site http://www.junglesyndicate.com is using FCG, and i am extremely impressed. It looks great.
However, I would like the sticky post on the main page (welcome message) to appear above FCG. I am using wordpress and have some/little knowledge of PHP. I am using the Weaver-2010 theme. Obviously putting the code under the part that calls the loop in index.php will cause FCG to appear at the bottom of the posts. Therefore I assume I need to insert the code into loop.php. Unfortunately with my little knowledge of PHP I have no idea where to put it.
Any advice on where the code should be placed? Or is there a potential hack/workaround? Below is a copy of my loop.php.
- Code: Select all
<?php
/**
* The loop that displays posts.
*
* The loop displays the posts and the post content. See
* http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop to understand it and
* http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags to understand
* the tags used in it.
*
* This can be overridden in child themes with loop.php or
* loop-template.php, where 'template' is the loop context
* requested by a template. For example, loop-index.php would
* be used if it exists and we ask for the loop with:
* <code>get_template_part( 'loop', 'index' );</code>
*
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Twenty_Ten
* @since Twenty Ten 1.0

/* Start the Loop.

* In Twenty Ten we use the same loop in multiple contexts.
* It is broken into three main parts: when we're displaying
* posts that are in the gallery category, when we're displaying
* posts in the asides category, and finally all other posts.
*
* Additionally, we sometimes check for whether we are on an
* archive page, a search page, etc., allowing for small differences
* in the loop on each template without actually duplicating
* the rest of the loop that is shared.

* Without further ado, the loop:
