  Is it possible to sort my posts into the order that I want them to appear?

  I want to create some posts and fit them in between some I already have.

  Every post has a publication date embedded into the URL of the posts. All posts are displayed in reverse chronological order on the main page for posts on the blog. By default that’s the front page of the blog. You can create the posts and then backdate them by change the datestamps in the Publish module.

  I know you are not scheduling a post but I want you to look at the images here so you know here the edit link is to change the datestamp. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/schedule-a-post/

  Lastly, note that if you change datestamps on post that are already published and indexed by search engines you will regret it. This spot explains why > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/08/05/avoid-creating-404-pages/

  Thank you, that information is most appreciated.

  I can now enter some posts that I had missed, in the correct order.
