Archive
-
I want to create a page with an archive of my posted recipes in alphabetical order. Is this possible? So people can see one page with al the recipes sorted by name. Now they only can choose a month and always have to scroll down the page to see all the recipes.
Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there.
You can take a look at the Display Posts shortcode. You can customise it to display posts in alphabetical order by post title, to display the title only or title and preview, etc., but it’s limited to displaying only 100 posts. If you have more that 100 posts you can use the shortcode multiple times on one page, setting the first to show post 1-100, the second to show post 101-200, etc.
You insert the shortcode directly into a page in the visual editor. You can’t use it in a widget. Instructions on using this shortcode here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/display-posts-shortcode/

Top left “My Sites” > Pages > Add. Then edit the page created, type the recipie name and link it to the post. I do that with my “Other” page as a blog archive.
If your theme doesn’t have stand alone pages you could make a custom link sidebar. Just change the title from “links” to “recipes”. Then each link inserted you entitle with your recipe name and link to that post.

That is, of course, the other option – do it manually. But if you use the shortcode it will update automatically each time you publish a new post. It’s a little complicated to set up at first, but in the long run much simpler.

As far as I know all themes on WordPress.com allows one to create and publish pages.
