  I want my blog to follow the format of almost all other blogs I read–I want my latest post to appear first, then my 2nd latest, and so on. I have the “Cutline” theme and for some reason, this causes my oldest post to appear first on my page, and my newer posts underneath it. How can I change this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  This happens sometimes on the first post or two. When you first create a blog, the time is set to GMT/UTC. If you set the time offset from GMT/UTC after that (settings > general) then the first couple can be out of order.

  First go to settings > general and make sure your offset from GMT is set correctly for your time zone. Next, the post that is out of order and change the date and/or time as required to get it in the correct order. This support document explains about changing the posting time: http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-status/ .
