Is your Stash sticky?

You built your collection. Stash keeps it organised.
Sticky makes it a pleasure to browse at your desk or on your phone.

At your desk

Your Home page, and your tags grouped by category.

Everything up front. You don’t need to hover or click to find out what something is. It’s right there on the card.

  • Scene cards see the full title, studio, date, who’s in it and the tags.
  • Performer cards show their age, their country and years they were active.
  • Hover over any card and get even more.
  • Cards are slimmer, now more fits on your screen.

Tags, sorted

Your tags used to sit in one long list. Sticky sorts them under the parent tags you already have.

  • Pick a category, like Action, People or Scene.
  • Pick a tag. Each one shows a count beside it.
  • Done. You’re straight to the good part.

Every tag you own is now two clicks away.

Cards, redesigned

Same scene, two looks. Stash does the organising. Sticky makes browsing the fun part.

It’s late at night, you’re scrolling for something to watch. Maybe it’s your favourite performer. Maybe it’s the scene you rented on DVD years ago and never forgot.

  • With the performers and tags hidden, you struggle to find it.
  • Now, every card has been upgraded - you don’t need to guess. Wasn’t it Newly weds Test Whether the Honeymoon Suite is Soundproof? Oh yeah, that one.

Performers, laid bare

Every detail in its place.

Get to know your faves without digging.

  • Basics. Gender, country, birthday and age.
  • Career. The years they were active.
  • Their look. Height, hair, eyes and measurements.
  • Tattoos and piercings. An anatomical map showing where everything is.

You’ll always know where to look.

In your hand

Home, a performer and Tags, all one thumb away.

Later, in bed, on your phone.

  • Liquid glass bar at the bottom of the screen, like YouTube’s. Your four favourite pages are one tap away.
  • Cards made for a small screens, for easier searching and your viewing pleasure.
  • Tags sorted for phones, Scroll through category tabs along the top.

One-handed browsing, as nature intended.

Ready to use
No dependencies, no bloat, one theme, one install.

Install

Three steps. About a minute.

1  Add Sticky to Stash

In Stash, go to Settings → Plugins → Available Plugins → Add Source. Name it Sticky and paste this link:

https://stickystash.github.io/Sticky/index.yml

2  Install it and reload.

Open the new source, tick Sticky and click Install. That’s it. Stash will let you know when there’s an update.

Install by hand instead

Copy this folder into your Stash plugins folder (for example ~/.stash/plugins/sticky/). Then go to Settings → Plugins → Reload plugins and reload the page.

3  Choose your phone bar

Go to Settings → Plugins → Sticky → Phone tab bar. List your four pages in order, with commas between them (everything else goes into the More menu):

home, scenes, images, performers

How Sticky came together

A couple of months ago, I was flicking between Netflix on the TV and Stash on my phone, and it hit me. Why can’t Stash feel like this? So Sticky borrows the best bits from Netflix and YouTube.

Huge thanks to the hard working Stash developers. None of this exists without the thing they built.

Sticky was built with help from Claude Opus 5.5, Which wrote much of the code under my direction. I reviewed every change, tested it on a live Stash install on desktop and iPhone, and I take responsibility for the code. Issues and pull requests are welcome.

Super nice! I really like the sleek, modern look. I noticed that several plugins, including Gifs, Ascension, and Curator, don’t appear in the navigation bar.
Is that expected, or could there be an issue with how Sticky discovers or displays installed plugins?

My guess is that it may be a Sticky navigation or plugin-discovery issue, since multiple plugins are affected rather than just one.

Edit: seems fine on desktop, so may only be a mobile issue

First time I see that Tattoo Human Body style, that look amazing
 it just too bad I don’t keep notice of this data. Look like it is manual work as StashDB don’t really store specific location?

StashDB does indeed store tattoo locations.

Yes but there is no exact location though? I just write “Leg” but is it right leg or left leg, there is no “specific” location. I’m not sure how the Plugins ‘translate’ these Location onto that body diagram. Or is it a manual process.

StashDB stores specific tattoo locations and they get mapped onto the diagram automatically. No manual input needed.

Great job! This is a beautifully clean and modern theme. I have some very nit-picky feedback on a few small elements. Is that something you would be open to hearing?

As a theme author, I know it’s a lot of work to make these things (even when using AI; which I also do). So, please understand these would be coming from a place of great respect, and I would welcome the same on my own themes if you were so inclined.

A secret update for the first few through the door.

Thank you to everyone who left feedback before the page went AWOL. This update is for you.

1. Four themes

Go to Settings → Plugins → Sticky → Set the mood and pick your backdrop:

:blue_circle: Blue balls

:black_circle: Blindfold

:green_circle: Extra virgin

:red_circle: Red light district

Lights low, or whatever suits.

2. Your tab bar, your rules

  • Pick the four pages you can’t keep your hands off. The rest wait in the More menu.
  • Pages from other plugins, like TV, Curator and Ascension, now in their proper place.

3. Ratings, redone

Scene ratings get a modern new look, and now sit on the left of the card.

Update

Stash will offer 1.1 under Settings → Plugins. Reload the page and you’re done.


Sticky is built together. Every change here started with you.
What would you like next?

Thanks man for this and the edit too! It wasn’t you, added Ascension and Gifs and got the same result. Sticky v1 on phone could only handle the default pages. Fixed it up in v1.1. Also, you can now choose what four pages you want at the bottom.

Glad you like it! Putting the piercing and tattoo locations on the diagram was interesting. There is a table in the theme with a list of body parts (e.g. left wrist) and it places the dots in those specific locations. You’re right, if there’s just “leg” it will just default to the right leg!

Cheers! That means a lot! Funny timing, I was having a look at Juicy just before I posted Sticky. The retro-arcade, addicting games, kinda look was the complete opposite to this one, really dig it. Nit picks are always welcome!

Thanks! Give City Pop a try, if you get the chance. It’s my favourite “stylized” theme. Would love your feedback!

For Sticky, on the Galleries page, there are some minor alignment issues (at least to my eye). See screenshot below. If it were up to me, I would put a few pixels below the highlighted tab (“Details” or “Images” in the screenshot) and I would move the performer card and stars so that they line up with the name.

Very 80s, definitely need to try it out. Appreciate the keen eye for alignment. I’ll take a look!

Hi, and thanks! I really love this theme.

However, I have two pieces of feedback regarding the design.

First, the Home button in my navigation bar seems to be misaligned compared to the other buttons (I’m not sure if this is intentional). Also, changing the tabs in the plugin settings doesn’t seem to have any effect.

Second, I find that the cards in the Groups tab are too narrow, which causes my movie posters to be cropped.

Thanks!

Hey! Thanks for the kind words, will get this adjusted in the next update. Right now you can only re order the pages on your phone but desktop is next on the list.

Stay tuned.
