Troubleshooting Make sure the Post Widget class name and the Filter Widget target match. Check for incompatible plugins or theme conflicts: Temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme. Deactivate all other plugins except Elementor and Better Post & Filter Widgets. Test the filter. If it works, reactivate your plugins one by one to find the one causing the conflict. Disable caching or optimization plugins while testing, as they can interfere with AJAX. Check the browser console for JavaScript errors (press F12 and look under the Console tab) and resolve any errors that appear. Docs and Support Find support for this plugin in the documentation. Source Code This plugin includes both compressed and uncompressed versions of CSS and JavaScript files and can be found under the /assets/ directory.

By default, the plugin allows to have only one sticky post at a time, which means that when saving a post that has been flagged as sticky, it automatically unsticks other posts. Under Settings > Lonely Sticky, an option can be found that allows you to define how many sticky posts can exist at a time. For example, if a maximum of 3 posts is allowed, when saving a post that has been flagged as sticky, the two most recent sticky posts present (if any) will be kept as sticky, along the one that’s being saved. Setting the option to 0 will disable sticky posts completely.
