Change post order
-
Hi there, I was wondering if it is at all possible to set the blog so that it shows the oldest post first. (As opposed to the most recent post being at the top.) I am using the Hemingway Rewritten theme and I looked through pretty much all the options, but perhaps I’m missing something? Thanks in advance for your help!

No, there is no universal setting you can use to achieve that.
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.
