  I’ve read that blog posts are reverse chronological by default, which is what I want. Any idea why posts on my new blog are chronological? https://shadesofpete.wordpress.com/

  Thanks!

  You could have a timezone issue.
  You could have a sticky post issue.

  You are right.

  Blogs are essentially a reverse chronological order publishing tool wherein the most recent published post will display on top.

  The default timezone is UTC time. You can reset your timezone here > Dashboard > Settings > General. Select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu you see there and then click “save changes”.

  Edit the post, change the datestamp in the Publish module, and click Update.

  All Posts are found here > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts

  http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php
  *replace “/NAME_OF_BLOG” with the actual name of your blog

  You hover over the title of the post and click the Edit link, then edit the datestamp in the Publish module and click update.

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