I have been using this on my site for a while now and I love how I can sort the order in which the news is displayed. I felt it would be a cool thing to share with everyone, so here goes:
First, you'll need to have Joomblaworks http://www.frontpageslideshow.net/ installed on your site. (this is NOT a free modification, and is needed to make this work)
Then you'll need to install this modification: vb_Cement
Now, open the "mod_fpslideshow.php" file for the Frontpage Slideshow. Search for "sticky" (only one instance in the entire file) and replace with "threadweight".
Old line of code:
New line of code:
Now use the vb_Cement modification to arrange your sticky news items in the forum you are pulling the news from. Enjoy!

$getnews = $db->query_read("SELECT threadid from ".TABLE_PREFIX."thread WHERE attach !='0' AND forumid in($forumid) ORDER by sticky DESC, threadid DESC LIMIT $limit");
