Stickied Posts/Category problems

2010-09-08T15:04:14Z

Any ideas as to why the check boxes for "Stickied Posts / Categories" aren't working? I can only select "All Posts" (The drop down doesn't work).

Did I miss something or is there something I should know?

Standard Thumbnail Size in Featured Articles

2010-09-08T13:49:31Z

Hey there everyone!
I'm having a problem with the size of the standard thumbnail size in the featured articles overview when using QUICK PREVIEW mode!
It works like it should in node mode but not in quick preview.
The Latest Posts section works like a charm though when using quick preview.
The standard thumbnail doesn't get resized as it should while manually added thumbnails for new posts are resized properly.

What could be causing this?

I will use the node based view for now as long as I don't have a solution...

Thank you in advance for helping me .

Slideshow Synced with Posts below

2010-09-08T01:42:14Z

Hey there,

I was wondering if I could customize the theme so that the slide show blog posts are also the same ones in the 'normal' blog post area below.

http://theprimekrew.com/

We only post blog posts about once a week for our radio show. So the bottom content looks out dated. It'd be cool if I could edit it to have the top 5 latest stories at the bottom and in the fader.

Thanks in advanced.

How to Remove Sticky Posts from News Posts section?

2010-09-08T00:46:29Z

As seen here on my front page: http://danbirlew.com I set my News Posts section (named "Recent Headlines") to display "All Categories", "Per Line," and only 6 posts. However, 9 posts are showing, including the sticky posts. How do I change the settings or the code so that only the bottom 6 headlines display in the News Posts section?
