A two post bog
-
Trying to put 2 posts on one blog in chronological order from the current post to the last (former) post.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
Two ways:
1. Change the publish date/time of one of them, rearranging the chronological order.
2. Make the first post, chronologically, a sticky post. That will place it at the top, above the second post. See the Sticky Posts section of the Post Visibility support page for instructions. -
Blogs are essentially a reverse chronological order publishing tool wherein the most recent published post will display on top. You cannot change this order on a free hosted WordPress.com blog. There is no upgrade that allows you to change this post order on a free hosted WordPress.com blog. It’s designed to serve your visitors as they come to read the most recent posts and will not be inclined to trawl through hundreds of posts to locate it.
See here for the option of creating a book-like structure > http://en.support.wordpress.com/write-a-book/ Perhaps that will work for you.
Or you could use a single sticky post as an index page > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#sticky-posts
Or you can falsify every date-stamp before publishing.

Select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu you see there and then click “save changes”.
Edit the post, change the datestamp in the Publish module, and click Update.

I apologize for my confused overlapping response and the unintended duplication in it. -
