If space is such a concern, why not dump the topic creator's name off the stuck announcement titles in the new proposal? I honestly don't see those as being that important, as far as these go (ignoring their position), and their removal would allow more space for announcements.

...Or just drop it to 2~3 a row and that'd do the same thing. I like that idea a bunch, either way.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

One thing that I would like to have implemented in this idea (and that I even display in my image) is the ability to set the order that the stickies are displayed in, so that it isn't determined solely by last post time. I don't know if vB keeps track of when threads get stickied, but ordering them by this attribute would be a simple way of accomplishing my wish. To reorder, simply unsticky the threads and resticky them in the desired order.

They'll be sorted by post date (as this is the default behaviour). Is it normal to have more than 4 stickies in any one thread? I ask this because I cannot figure out for the life of me how to make vB jump to a new row in the template bits if a certain condition has been met. I'm sure it's something simple I'm missing, but...

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Sorry for the sorta-double-post.

Alright, just so I can confirm, is this OK, Kaleb/others?
...The attachment, that is. It's a screenshot of how this looks "live".

If so, I'll package up the code and PM it to you so you can dump it in Mod Hut for someone to play with or post it here or whatever.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

That is done.
I have sent you a PM with the file for installation of this mod. Ignore the odd spacing issue on the right side of the stuck threads--that won't affect a normal installation (it is caused by the Moderation Column's display being disabled, though it looks to always appear for admins). It will drop all stickies on one line, and put announcements above them.

To see what it is now, check this (newer) attachment~
