  Hello, wordpress is a terrific tool.

  I recently completed a 114 day 2000+ mile kayak trip and took me from Miami to Montreal (http://miami2montreal.com).

  Now that the trip is over I would like to reverse the order of the posts so that people can consult it in a chronological order.

  I don’t see an option button that would enable me to do what must be a very standard procedure for travel blogs.

  Thanks for your help,

  Rene

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

  All posts are displayed in reverse chronological order (newest at top). Take a look at this support document on one suggestion on how to do this though.

  Thanks, I guess this will be a lot of work to do something that could be so simple but it’s nice that there is an option available!

  My blog is not displaying in reverse chronological order.

  http://troop21tampa.wordpress.com/

  Every new post is displaying at the bottom. That will mean scrolling through all the OLD posts to see the new post.

  Can someone tell me how to change it so the NEWEST post is at the top?

  For some reason the time is not showing on the posts (they are all from today) but the post FIRST CLASS JACK was the very first post. THANKS

  @pdacpa
  Please be sure your timezone has been correctly set here > Settings > General. If you do not change it to your own timezone then the UTC timezone will apply.
  Another thing that can cause this is “sticky” posts. See here for an explanation. > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#sticky-posts
  If your timezone is correctly set and you do not have a sticky posts issue please contact Staff. > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/

  I had my time zone set to New York (I am in Florida (eastern day light).

  I just double checked it. Changed it to another and saved and then put it back to the correct. It shows the UCT date and time and then says “local” time and it is accurate.

  Nothing changed on my blog. I do not believe I made a sticky post anywhere.

  Also, no times show up (just the date) so it is hard for a viewer to tell they are not sorted correctly since everything I have done is today.

  Please be aware that some themes do provide timestamps and some do not. Please see here for a list of the themes that either do or do not display them > posting time displayed or not > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/03/24/posting-time-displayed/
