By default, WordPress lets you make unlimited posts sticky, which can quickly clutter your homepage and make featured content harder to manage.
Sticky Posts Limit gives you full control by letting you define how many sticky posts you want to keep.
When the limit is exceeded:
– Only the most recent sticky posts are kept
– Older sticky posts are automatically unmarked
👉 No need to manually remove sticky status from old posts — the plugin handles everything for you automatically.
This keeps your homepage clean, focused, and easy to manage.
Perfect for blogs, news sites, and magazine-style layouts where controlling featured content matters.
