  I’m having a strange problem. The dates of my posts are a day later than they actually are; for example, my post from today, May 29th, says it was posted on May 30th. Furthermore, my posts on my blog aren’t displayed in any order. I want them to go most recent to oldest. Anyone know how to fix it?

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

  Have you set your timezone correctly?

  The default timezone is UTC time. Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account. You have to contact the site’s actual owner and have them transfer the blog to your username account.

  You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard and reset timezone. The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:

  http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  * You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with the actual blog’s name in that URL.

  Provided you are logged in as Admin you can confirm or reset your timezone here > Dashboard > Settings > General.

  Go to http://thebeachyquilter.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php

  There you select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu and then click “save changes”.

  Note that you can examine these images so you see how to edit posts and change datestamps and timestamps where required.

  P.S. Have you made any posts sticky?
