  People viewing my blog cannot see recent posts, but rather get posts from nearly four years ago. I checked my settings to make sure my most recent posts are showing. Readers also cannot access my most recent posts even though they are sticky and public.

  Please advise.

  Thanks,
  Peter

  When you maek a post as a sticky post it appears at the top of the main page for posts in your blog. When you mark many posts sticky posts you create a huge mess. If you have more than one sticky post, I recommend bulk editing your posts to remove that designation.

  Thank you for the tip. Bulk editing the stickiness fixed everything.

  Hooray! Best wishes with your blog. :)

  P.S. I suggest you cosider placing a Recent Posts widget in your sidebar so visitors have links to use to access your posts. http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/recent-posts-widget/

  My posts were listed with the newest first moving chronologically backward.
  Today the new post is first and the others begin with 2008.
  I don’t understand what has happened.
