  I’m another slightly confused new WordPress enthusiast. Can I change or stop the settings that make posts either ‘older’ or ‘newer’?
  I am just starting up and already a very new post has been marked as ‘older’ and disappeared from the category.

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

  Hi there,
  Infinite scroll is enabled on your blog. You can disable it on this page > Settings > Reading and set the number of post you wish to appear on the front page of the blog.

  Look for:
  Blog pages show at most ____ posts
  enter the number of posts you want to display

  scroll down to:
  To infinity and beyond ___ Scroll Infinitely
  (Shows 7 posts on each load)
  remove the checkmark

  scroll down and click “save changes”

  Disabling the infinite scroll feature to get rid of the pop-up in the footer results in a “Load More Posts” tab, and you can’t disable that “Load More Posts” tab from appearing and have “previous post” and “next post” links, without the Custom Design upgrade. http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/

  Thank you. That fixed it. I seem to need to have ‘Blog pages show at most 2 posts’ Once I have another post I’ll check again. Amazingly fast service. Cheers for that.
