ignore_sticky_posts was introduced in WordPress 3.1. Before this version, you can use caller_get_posts, which will have the same effect (this option was used when you queried the posts via get_posts(), which uses the same WP_Query class in the background, but should ignore sticky posts). The name was a bit confusing, and thus changed in 3.1.
<?php // query posts $query_property = query_posts( array( ‘orderby’ => ‘date meta_value’ // orderby date AND meta value ) ); // First loop $query_feat = $query_string.’&meta_value=on&meta_key=property_featured’; // Offset for second loop $query_all = $query_string.’&offset=3&meta_key=property_featured’; // First loop if ( $query_feat->have_posts() : while ( $query_feat->have_posts() ) : # etc…. // do stuff endif; // Second loop … Read more
Sticky Post default functionality with WP_Query is ignored when using AJAX
You can achieve this with ACF. Create a custom field checkbox (just a simple boolean) for your custom post type.

Though may not be intuitive, one needs the capability edit_others_posts to make posts sticky. If you don’t want a user to have that ability just remove the edit_others_posts capability from the user.
As pointed out by @t31os in the comments, get_query_var(‘page’) should actually be get_query_var(‘paged’).
You need to set ignore_sticky_posts to true in your query arguments. This way you exclude sticky posts and only focus on the post ID’s array being passed to post_in ‘ignore_sticky_posts’ => true, EDIT If this does not make much sense, please see my answer here to similar question where I have explained it a bit … Read more
I think we can try the following: (NOTE: This is untested but should in theory work, but remember, it is untested and can be buggy) add_action(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘ad_custom_query’); function ad_custom_query($query) { // No other checks should be necessary if ( $query->get( ‘custom_query’ ) === 1 ) ) { // set the number of posts per page … Read more
