  Hi there,

  s there a way of reversing blog posts so that the oldest one appears first

  Yes, there is way to display posts in chronological order, that is, from oldest to newest.

  Follow this link to change the order of your posts:

  Hope this helps!

  Thank you, that is very helpful! But, not quite working for me with my knowledge… I setup my wordpress account today!

  I have imported a blog from TravelPod which is shutting down. It has loads of posts so is hard to move every post or manually alter the dates of every post, and anyway, keeping the right dates is important.

  Adding /?order=asc works brilliantly but you have to do it manually. Is there a way of just adding it so that the page link naturally opens that way?

  If I open pages, I seem to have options to edit all pages EXCEPT the blog one, maybe because of the way it was imported, so adding shortcodes doesn’t seem to work either.

  I did just come across the wordpress help advice, “There isn’t a way to display posts in chronological order”. So, I guess the answer for what I want at my ability level is no.

  If there is any way to force the URL suffix, or any other paractical way you can think of, please do let me know.

  The step 5 add a menu option looked promising but I cannot see how to do it.

  Thanks for your help,
  Pablo
