order of entries on WordPress
-
One of my entries is always at the top when I enter new entries. I wanted it this way. Now I want another entry at the top and for it to always stay there. I can’t remember how this is done.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You’ll have to edit the one that is always on top and, on the right-hand side of the Edit page is a tickbox to make it Sticky or not. Untick that. On the post you DO want on top, edit it and select that box to make it Sticky. Remember to update after doing that.

I wonder if Sticky is only available on Premium WordPress. I don’t see it on the free version. I asked someone to push the post to the top that remains there, so I don’t know how they did it. Perhaps there is another process?

Blogs are essentially a reverse chronological order publishing tool and you cannot change this order throughout on a free hosted WordPress.com blog by clicking a button.
Readers arrive to read our most recent posts. In the case of my blog that means they don’t have to slog through over 850 posts to locate the most recent one.
In any blog you can create a sticky post and even use a sticky post as an index page > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#sticky-posts this does not require an upgrade. Note that if you create more than a single sticky post you will create a mess.

Yes indeed it’s in the Publish module just as the support doc demonstrates. Happy blogging! :)
