XF 2.1 Cannot make threads sticky

[Arnie]

I have just upgraded from 1.5 to 2.1. I cannot make threads sticky. I looked at permissions and that seems ok. No option to make threads sticky.

When you click on the edit button for the thread what options do you see?

That's not standard functionality.

The stick option is available via the dropdown menu at the top right.

You can stick a thread on 1.5 doing the same thing, it just looks different.

We do have a couple addons that adds options to the edit box for 2.1

That's not standard functionality.

It is, both via the thread list and the thread view.

When I click on edit thread, I only see option to edit title

Are you sure that your permissions are correct? Use the Analyze Permissions feature in the ACP to properly check this (check both the global permissions as well as the node permissions for the node you are having problems with).

Have you physically made yourself a moderator and not just change your usergroup to moderating? Admins must make themselves moderators as well to do a lot of front end forum work.

In the case of making threads sticky and locking threads, you don't need to be a moderator, you only need to grant the relevant user group permissions to do these (which whilst labelled as moderating permissions, don't actually make you a moderator; for access to the approval queue and reports and some other functionality that is where you need to be made a moderator in the ACP).

I have been trying different permissions before I asked the question

Have you tested with all add-ons disabled and in a completely unedited default style? Also checked that there are no outdated templates?
