Do I take if from DD's Tips post on the Technical Forum that we now have the capability of sticky posts for FAQs, or is this a hard coded one-off?

Here's hoping!

We now have the ability for using sticky posts.

Too many will defeat the object, but they will be very useful if used appropriately.

Thank you Dave & Stephen.

You mean the ones that I created at the start of January and are also mentioned at the start of each of the most recent threads on these subjects?

Sorry Mark, can't take all the credit for this. I was only the messenger who passed on M.M's suggestion to Stephen.

IIRC (look at me showing off), there was a bit of discussion about acronyms a week or two past.

Now I didn't understand a word of the initial post, what is this going on about???

mapmaker,

Basically it's a feature that us moderators can use to force a thread to stay at the top of the forum until such a time that *we* unstick it again. It's stops messages that are considered important from getting lost in amongst other threads.

If you take a look over in Technical Matters, there is a "sticky" thread placed there by yours truly. No matter how many people post a reply to an existing thread, or start a new one, mine will remain at the top of the list.

DD.
