FAQ's

1) I activated plugin but cannot see sticky post.
Check your wordpress version. It must be WP 2.1 or > or WPMU 1.1 or >. Second you check the custom field name and make sure that you spelled it correct.

2) I would like to activate Yearly Repeater plugin as well
Dont do that mistake. It is going to throw mysql error.

3) I got wierd mysql error
This plugin changes query for showing posts. It is possible that you have another plugin which also modifies the query and hence the resultant query is a junk query which MySQL is not recognizing. so now you have to deactivate any one of the plugin.
