Where is the function which makes a topic sticky? I mean, not setting the status to 'sticky' but showing it above normal topics in the forums page.

I 've been searching all day.. Im asking cuz im planning to make a mod and I need this function..

There isn't really a "function" for this. Sticky is a flag in the database. Upon requesting topics, they are sorted by sticky flag (among others). If a topic is sticky, it gets the sticky prefix.

if ( $topicdata['status_sticky'] )
	$topic_name = $lang['Sticky'].': '.$topic_name;

Oh, I see..

ORDER BY t.status_sticky DESC, p2.post_time DESC

That's why I couldn't find what I wanted. That is done from within the db query..

Thank you Dietrich!
