my posts are not in chronological order all of a sudden?
-
Is there a way to put them back in chronological order?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
For starters we need the URL of the blog in question beginning with http to provide you with accurate help.
-
why do you need that since you are not a representative of WordPress?
You can see my blog if you click on my name or put it into the search. -

@desireekennedy Your name isn’t clickable. You have not set it up to be associated with your blog.

Your front page is out of order because you have erroneously marked all those posts as stickies. Go to Posts > All Posts, tick the white square to select all the posts, select Edit from the Bulk Actions pulldown, click Apply, select Not Sticky from the Sticky pulldown, click Update. Depending on how many posts you’ve set your posts screen to display, you may need to repeat for the next page of posts.

As for making your username a link to your blog, see point 2 here:

HEY- so I did the unmark as sticky thing, turns out my posts were not marked as stickies and now I marked them as stickies and I CAN’T UNMARK THEM!
Kinda pissed, my postings are STILL out of order. -
The only one still marked “sticky” is the one at the top — “YMCA” — the rest are not marked sticky, and they are in the correct order from most recent to least recent. You only need to “unsticky” the YMCA post from January 14, 2010 and your posts should all be in the correct order (from most recent to oldest).
Here’s something about sticky posts: http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#sticky-posts
In your theme, you can tell the sticky posts because they have a slightly gray background to them and the others are all on the white background.

a) My instructions said “select Not Sticky from the Sticky pulldown”: this can only turn stickies to regular posts, not the other way round.
b) All wp.com blogs display posts in reverse chronological order: messed order can only happen if you’ve marked one or more posts as stickies.
c) Your blog is set to display 10 posts per page, but your front page had twenty eight posts: this can only happen when when you’ve got multiple stickies, because stickies override the number of posts per page.
d) Paste this into the address bar of your browser and hit return:
cache:http://desireekennedyproductions.wordpress.com/
It will give you a cached version of your front page (as it was before the correction). Select View Source from the View menu of your browser, search for “sticky”, find it 28 times and quit being “kinda pissed”.
