    Hi, is there a way of changing the order in which my portfolio items appear on my page (without using a plugin)? I’d like them to appear in the order of latest item first.

    I’m not using a self-hosted blog so i don’t think plugins are available to me anyway! Help?

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

    Hi there. As far as I know, portfolio projects display by date, most recent first, by default. You don’t have to do anything to ensure it displays that way, and in fact there’s no way to override it without using CSS. If your projects are not ordered by date that might be a bug.

    And yes, you don’t have the ability to install plugins.

    The portfolio items are arranged by masonry (which is a bit of code that dynamically repositions your content so that they fit together in the best way possible, regardless of the screen size of the device you’re viewing on – it’s basically a really good tetris robot but for website content). I don’t think there’s a way to explicitly control the layout but you might have some luck if you set up your portfolio projects so that they appear in a regular grid – this would mean you have to tweak the images and titles so they all fit in the same amount of space. Try it and see if it gets you any closer to the desired result.
