  See the Twitter message thread starting at https://twitter.com/wordpressdotcom/status/1720566371623342507:

  << Hi @wordpressdotcom, there is both the “new and improved” list of scheduled posts at https://wordpress.com/posts/scheduled/wiert.me (which you cannot sort in reverse chronological order) and https://wiert.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php which until yesterday had a date column so you could sort.How can I get sorting back?

  and even more importantly: get the date column back? >>

  Note that as of 20231103 this fails on both Chrome in regular/incognito mode and FireFox in regular/private mode even after clearing all cookies and cache.

  And yes: I know about URL parameters like https://wiert.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=future but without a Date column it makes it really hard to see at which timestamp the posts in the list have been scheduled.

  PS: while you are at it finding what broke the Date column in the classic posts overview, please also try to find out what broke “Ask in the forums” at the help page (which now returns “Something went wrong, please try again later.” even after trying later, see https://twitter.com/jpluimers/status/1720719649187258436)

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

  Hi @jpluimers, could you tap Screen Options at the top of your classic/wp-admin list and make sure Date is checked? I’m not sure how that would have been switched off from you, but it’s the likely culprit. Date should still be in the columns so long as you’ve got that checked.
