QUESTIONS FOR THE PERSON REQUESTING THE PLUGIN/THEME [generally this means Matt or a community facilitator]
- What's the name of the plugin/theme?

Tag Sticky Post https://wordpress.org/plugins/tag-sticky-post/

- [plugins] In a few words, what does it do?

Allows for a post to be sticky in a tags archive page.

- How is the plugin/theme different from what's already provided on the Commons?

Currently there is basic sticky post and category sticky post capability, however it is not possible to have a sticky post for a tag archive page.

- What's the potential impact? Who will use it?

The plugin allows for long term planning of content by allowing a blog to state what a category is or highlight a exemplar post that shows what the tag will feature. It prevents important content from being lost over time. In classroom spaces, it will also allow a course leader or blog admin to define how a tag is used on a tag page.

- Who initially made the request? [sometimes Matt is passing along requests from members, sometimes suggesting something he found himself]
Jade E. Davis at LaGuardia CC

- Who is the plugin author?
tommcfarlin (also authored the category sticky already in the commons)

- Say a little bit about the release history and popularity of the plugin. How many times has it been downloaded? When was it last updated?
