  Hi, I am using the Bueno theme. Is there any way to arrange categories so that, when a person clicks on that category name, the resulting posts are organized from the OLDEST first, to the newest? Rather than the other way around? I have a number of categories and seeing the oldest first takes you through those stories in the appropriate order that makes sense. But when the categories are clicked on, the posts show up by newest first, which doesn’t make as much sense for the reader.

  ?? Can I do this? Seems simple, and it would be amazing to me if there wasn’t a way to do this. Thanks,
  Shelley

  A blog is a tool for publishing posts in reverse chronological order. There is no automatic way to organize posts in a category in chronological order, oldest to newest.

  You could manually create an index to your posts and put them in any order you like. Perhaps this link will give you an idea about how to do this:

  It’s not exactly what you are asking about, but working through making an index and using a custom menu with links to your index will accomplish what you are looking for.
