Let say I have 3 categories (Algebra, Geometry, Calculus) for all my posts, and I'd like my automatic table of content to look like this

Algebra
1. How to factorise
2. Linear equation with 2 varibles

Calculus
1. Differential
2. Integral - Calculate the area
3. Integral - Calculate the volume
4. Limit equations

Geometry
1. Cubes (part 1)
2. Cubes (part 2)
3. Circle
4. Linear Graph
5. Pyramid (part 1)
6. Pyramid (part 2)
7. Pyramid (part 3)

I need it in alphabetical order and sequence of numbers..
Is it possible to make it in wordpress.com platform? How to do it?
Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

You mentioned the HTML editor, but I am unsure how to access that too.

Thank you for your quick reply!

I clicked too soon. A blog is, essentially, a reverse chronological publishing tool. If you are looking for some automatic way to have blogging software create an alphabetized index of your posts for you that's not available. If you wish to structure you blog like a book that's possible. If you wish to create and code your own list you can do that too.

I am unsure of how to do this, I was already told about [archives], but am not really sure where to go after that, as I am unhappy with the result here.

(I'm using theme 2010 so your Dashboard may not look the same.)

So on your Dashboard you have to scroll down to Appearance, select Widgets, and go to the location of the Links Widget, in my case it's in Secondary Widget Area. There is the Links widget. Click 'edit' and the menu options will appear.

Then you can select the order in which they appear. The default is random. If you want to have them appear in a specific order you'll have to assign them a rank, select Rating and select that as your order. Otherwise you do have the option of having them alphabetized. They'll be alphabetized by the name you give them. Hope this helps. Took me a while to figure out - as in going on over an hour.

If you want me to send you screen shots of how I managed it I'll be happy to do so.

You can use the filter options to show links from one category at a time or to change the order they are listed in. To change the way the links are filtered, select the options you want from the View all Categories or Order by Name drop down menus, then click the Filter button.

In order to customize it beyond what is offered, you would need to use a WordPress.org installation.

Whether not something is easy to do isn't really the question. It's more whether it's good choice for the WordPress community and whether or not someone codes an elegant solution for it and submits it to the project. When that happens, then the community and the core developers can discuss, decide, and possibly implement changes. Open source!

What you are describing is a core WordPress function. When it comes to a core software decision as in this case, your best bet is to discuss your ideas in the core community. The place to do it is either at http://wordpress.org/support/ or the wp-hackers mailing list even.

Don't forget that all WordPress forums are volunteer-based. And remember, please be nice! :)

And it can be done by adding an option in the wordpress.com control panel, which if selected the reverse ordering would work. Not related to theme, but not difficult either. (Lets see how it is, I will have a look at the wordpress.org code)

It would be a niche thing. Sorting in chronological rather than reverse chronological though, I can see more demand for that.

Whether themes would have to be hacked or not might depend on how the theme was written. They would at least all have to be checked - and of course all of them tested in every browser, and every version, on every OS - to make sure there wasn't something that would trip things up. I've seen some really strange and bizarre things in theme files that really just should not be there.
