  1. MAIN ISSUE: For Sept and October attmepts to post on blog, post will not accept pasted or typed body to show in blog body area, hence there is nothing on the page to save into “Draft”. Mechanism only accepts headings and will store them in the draft.

  This is for blog LandResourceGuide.wordpress.com

  2. Added question: Is there a way to display the archived blogs by title (of abbreivated title or short submect matter) rather than by date?

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

  Hello there!

  1. MAIN ISSUE: For Sept and October attmepts to post on blog, post will not accept pasted or typed body to show in blog body area, hence there is nothing on the page to save into “Draft”. Mechanism only accepts headings and will store them in the draft.

  Could you please experiment with both ways to create a post and let me know if you have the same result?

  Classic posting version:
  https://landresourceguide.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=post

  New posting version:
  https://wordpress.com/post/29638834/new/?optin

  Please let me know if one works, and the other doesn’t, or if neither work for you.

  If you have trouble with both, please log into WordPress.com using another browser, such as Chrome, and test both those ways to post.

  2. Added question: Is there a way to display the archived blogs by title (of abbreivated title or short submect matter) rather than by date?

  Blog posts are, by default, organized in reverse-chronological order. You can change which posts appear at the top of your blog page by using sticky posts:

  You can also display only a summary of the content of each blog post by using the More Tag:

  Let me know how all of this works for you and if I can help further. Thanks much.
