Changing order of Blogs
-

Blog posts will be chronological from newest at the top.
Could you give us a little more detail as to what you are trying to accomplish? We might be able to come up with a workaround.

how about this?
i ‘shared’ a couple articles on my blog and then later i posted something i wrote but the 2 other articles are staying at the top of my blog with my newest post just below them.
how do i change that so that everyting scrolls from top to bottom?
thank you. peace!

We would need a link to your blog to be sure, but I suspect you have marked those two as sticky posts. To fix that, edit the post and unmark the sticky box.

that’s the thing, the sticky boxes are not checked… although, maybe i can check them on and then check them off and see what that does. thanks for the idea.

Can we have a link to your blog? We can’t really help unless we can have a look at things.

If this is the blog, http://lonnielrodriguez.wordpress.com/ I’m seeing posts from the 3rd, followed by posts from the 2nd.
Go to manage > posts and hover your mouse over the dates at the left for the posts and it will show the date and the time when the posts were published. Compare those to see if they are in chronological order (newest at top).
Also, go to settings > general and check and make sure the time offset from GMT/UTC is correct for your time zone.
-
You can change the publish time by opening the posts for edit and then above the “save” button, where it says “published on” click the edit link. The times are on a 24 hour clock.

I too would like to change of the order of my blog. This would mean that they would appear in chronological date order. That way, new blog users/readers could just read them in date order without knowing that they have to scroll to the bottom of the page or being familiar with the principles of blogging.

@ebanflo, I offer a couple things to think about.
If your posts were chronological (oldest at the top), that would mean that returning visitors would have to page down through all your posts to get to your newest post, and not everyone that comes to your blog will be a new visitor. Hopefully you will build up a good returning readership, and for them, having the posts in chronological order (oldest to newest) will be quite a burden.
Secondly, it will severely reduce your search engine ranking (if you care about having good placement on search engines). Search engines look for new posts on the main page and only occasionally crawl the additional pages once they have completely indexed your site.

I have a bit of a problem as well. For some reason my blog posts are in alphabetical order and not choronological order and I was wondering if I happened to do something odd with my settings… Thanks :D

Go to manage > posts and hover your mouse over the date for each post and it will show the date and time the post was published.
I’m seeing:
Subtitles…
Clannad…
Hello…If it was alphabetical it would be S, H, C.
Also, go to settings > general in your dashboard and make sure your time offset from GMT/UTC is set correctly for your time zone.
