  How does the “Latest Posts” work? I have posted several items to my blog and I have never seem them post here.

  Please advise.

  You have to be pretty quick to see them. With 220k other bloggers here, that list gets updated pretty quickly. In the six months or so I’ve been here, I think I’ve seen one of my posts maybe five or six times out of over 1,200 on teh three blogs I have here.

  Hello,

  Try this:
  Go to dashboard and select the Presentation tab. With most templates you’ll find a sub-tab called “Sidebar Widgets”. Go there and then from the list at the bottom, just drag and drop “Recent Posts” on the place on the sidebar where you want it shown.

  Is that what you mean?

  I’ll give that a try as well.

  I was thinking that as well but the Dashboard has the label “Latest Posts” and the widget is labeled “Recent Posts.”

  I’m thinking that AJ is looking at the Dashboard -> Latest Posts feed.

  I just dropped 108 posts into the webcomic. Didn’t see a single one come across there.

  I’ve actually seen mine twice in the last few days. Must have been at a time when fewer people were posting :)

  Shouldn’t be happening unless you’re removing the Blogroll widget. I would suggest a feedback from your Dashboard asking them about this.
