+## Usage
+
+The `sticky` parameter in the post [Front-matter](https://hexo.io/docs/front-matter) will be used to pin the post to the top of the index page.

 ## Note
 
 If your theme define a non-archive `index` layout (e.g. About Me page), this plugin would follow that layout instead and not generate an archive. In that case, use [hexo-generator-archive](https://github.com/hexojs/hexo-generator-archive) to generate an archive according to the `archive` layout.
