Basic - No Customization
This is a simple plugin to automatically make some posts sticky at the top of your home page - that's it. There's no customization of the UI through a block that you can use on your page.

No way to make it work
This plugin is exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunalely, I can find no way to make it work.I can add a post to the sticky list, and it appears as sticky in All Post List. But it doen't appear as the first of my blog, but in the usual date order.:-(
