  1. Confirm your timezone is correct
  The default timezone is UTC time. You can reset your timezone here > Settings > General.

  Select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu you see there and then click “save changes”.

  2. Make sure the post that’s out of order is not out of order due to sticky post assignment.

  3. Check the date and timestamp
  For editing them see:

  Go to http://debsroost.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php

  Provided your are logged in correctly under the exact same username account that registered the blog you will be able to change your timezone there exactly like I explained above.

  Select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu you see there and then click “save changes”.
