hi there, I found a plugin which displays a certain announcement (separately for each blog as far as I have tested) before the first post on the homepage.
However it accepts HTML input so I was just curious if it is hard to filter it with kses too?

Should be something like:
apply_filter($content, kses)
or something like that.
Andrea says she got the sticky plugin working. I never could but I never fooled much with it. Maybe she can speak up here.
I retested - it didn't work with newer code, BUT people who had previous sticky posts still had them "stuck" so to speak. It looks like mostly the ticky box option doesn't get rendered where it is supposed to.
And then I had to leave it at that, what with life interfering and all...
May want to look at wp.org's forums and see if anyone is having an issue with it. There may be a fix.
I found another sticky plugin, a new one on the block, I'll post the link here tomorrow, but I was trzing to play with this one as this is actuallz not a sticky post, but just a piece of html shown above the first post on the frontpage...
