re-order links in my blogroll
-
Hi everyone! This is my wordpress: http://rkaufman.wordpress.com. I’m trying to re-order the links in my blogroll (I want the site meter to be last) and cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to do this. Is there something obvious I’m missing? I checked the FAQ and searched the forums. It must be something really obvious. ;) Many thanks in advance!

The only way for your sitemeter to become your last link is to create an alphabetically last category for it to be assigned to. It’s currently being displayed alphabetically under the letter “S”.
All wordpress.com blogs have only one Blogroll located in the Admin area where you enter all links and assign each link to one or more Categories.
The links you enter into your Blogroll are displayed only after the Links widget is placed in your sidebar. Also note that there must be at least one link assigned to a Category before it will appear in your sidebar. Likewise, the Category widget must be placed in the sidebar for posts to display. And just like links when it comes to posts there must be at least one published post in a Category before the Category will be displayed in your sidebar.
Once your Links widget and Categories widget are positioned in your sidebar, the manner in which the links you entered into your Blogroll will be displayed is alphabetically in accord with the Categories you created and assigned to those links when you entered them into your Blogroll.
* Also note that the foregoing does not apply to the Blix theme which is hard-coded to display all links in one alphabetically organized row.

one way to get around this is to put a space or another character such as a bullet point as the first character of the category/link title. This will move it to the top. So, you would put a space in front of each link title that is not SiteMeter, and SiteMeter will be bumped to the bottom.
Caveat: This may be theme dependent; i don’t know.

i put the letter ‘z’ before the name sitemeter. since it comes with a button, the name can’t be seen when viewed in your blog.
