  I’m using this widget, which has a dropdown list of months in descending date order:

  I would like the dropdown list to display months in ascending date order. I’d be grateful for any suggestions as to how I can achieve this.

  Hi there!

  I’m afraid that this is not something you can modify. The archives will always display the oldest at the bottom.

  Thanks for your input fresatomica.

  That’s a shame. I have posted a series of letters written in the 19th century so in this case it makes more sense to display the archive in chronological order.
