Archival Posts
-
Hi WordPress World –
This question may be pretty idiotic but I just wanted it answered out of my own curiosity.
Do posts stay on your blog forever or do they have a life cycle like – after so and so amount of time they disappear?
I’m hoping this isn’t so and they all stay until I take my blog down or something.
thanks to whoever can help and apologies if this is a terribly obvious question :)

No, they stay on the blog forever or until you either turn them back into drafts, set them to private or delete them.
The “archive” that is part of wordpress isn’t an archive in the way most would think of it. It is just a way of displaying posts grouped by months.

@thesacredpath: Is there a way to display the archives in a hierarchy? For example, let’s say under August I had 5 different posts. Is there a way for a viewer to click on (expand) August and see the titles for each post…all in the sidebar?

Blogs are displayed in reverse chronological order and that’s the order the Archives widget displays them in as well. For the options included see > http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/archives-widget/
You can easily and quickly create an archive index of your WordPress.com blog’s posts using the [archives] shortcode on a page or in a post. See here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/archives-shortcode/
