  I want to show it so that my most recent posts are actually last. I want the first post to show up on the screen first. Why can’t I do that, is there a way?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I don’t think that there is a way to do make your older posts show up first. You can make your posts sticky, where they stick at the top of your page no matter when they were written. Posts>All Posts> Quick Edit>Make this post sticky. That’s how you could do it manually, but it would be a lot of work, and it would be tedious.

  You could make a page that would be a post archive, and would have links to all of your posts. You could put the links to the oldest posts at the top of the page, and the newest posts at the bottom of the list. That’s what many bloggers like timethief do. They have a site map that lets readers easily navigate their blog posts.

  Note that creates a list of links in order, like an index.
