Much appreciated. The blog is: http://liffbyrob.wordpress.com/

@auxclass & raincoaster Agreed. I've decided to do a mix because of that. Each 'week' of posts (MTWTF) will be posted in reverse chronological (so that they can be read in a logical order), but each week (week 1, week 2, week 3 etc) will be on screen in the normal blog fashion. I hope that works anyway.

Cheers!

just my $ .035 adjusted for inflation opinion.

We need a link to the blog you are talking about.

There is no way to sort through a post body looking for a date and then display it by that date.

Is there a way I can do that?

There is no pattern, eg. ascending, descending, etc.

I do need to put a date on each blog as it will be describing things that happened on that "Date" and I will be wanting the blogs to be in order by "Date" - not the date the post was made, but the "Date" that is referred to in the post.

Thus, I need to be able to rearrange posts by my "Date", not the WP date.

Is this possible? And if so, how?

Finally, how will I know an answer has arrived? Check back here hourly, daily, etc., I suppose?

Thanks, in advance, if anyone knows the answer.

You can use the procedure outlined in this support document possibly.

I'm creating a comic strip blog and it would be better if my posts were displayed in chronological order. Is there a way to do that?

Cheers,
Rob
