Hello,

Really hope someone can help me with this...

I want to reverse the order of the posts on my posts page.

I've tried this solution:

In your index.php file, look for this bit of code:

<?php if(have_posts()) : ?><?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

Right before that line, add this code:

<?php query_posts($query_string . "&order=ASC") ?>

I also tried putting this line of code in ATO>center column>above loop.

The problem is that the static homepage starts displaying posts as well, rather than the static text I want it to.

Please could someone help me out with this?

Many thanks,

Tom

Any help much appreciated.

I wouldn't mess with the index.php file. You might want to try this plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/...ting-reloaded/

Hey, thanks so much for that link, I'd tried a few other plugins but was left frustrated.

With Post Sorting Reloaded the interface is very easy to understand with links to lots of documentation.

At first I tried is_MyCategory() as Condition 1 sorted by post_date ASC , but this made the whole site fail to load.

I then changed Codition 1 to is_home() for no good reason, and this worked.

These terms are obvious when you start using the plugin and I include what I did here in case it works for anyone else. I don't know the first thing about php.

Thanks again Larry.

You can also check here for the syntax for conditional tags. For instance if you wanted to sort the archive page for a category with an ID of 23 you would use the following.

is_category('23')
