  I’m having issues with my blog at http://knoxroad.wordpress.com. What I want is no more than, say, 10 posts on the front page at a given time, in order from newest to oldest. Looking at my blog, it has more than 10 (which I already set in settings -> Reading) and at the bottom, the order is all messed up. Any help?

  The order is messed up because you have marked each of those posts as a sticky post. Edit them and remove the sticky checkbox.

  I can’t explain the more than 10 problem. Perhaps once you remove the sticky, the problem will correct itself.

  @Vivian: Yes, ALL (!) of the posts in his front page are marked as stickies. And I just checked it in my test blog: a sticky post will be ADDED to the number of posts displayed in the front page, not displace one of the normal ones.

  @angstlyplatypus: I also checked the rest of your posts; almost all of them are marked as stickies, too.
