Post Ordering

  • I read here that post ordering on WP can be done in four different ways:
    ascending
    descending
    alphabetical
    category
    I am familiar with how to do it ascending (default) and category, but how is it possible to order posts descending or alphabetical? (I’m particularly interested in descending, as that is chronological.)

  • Hey.
    I just got this working.
    Add order=ASC to a URL.
    I am using the rewrite rules, so now for month and year pages, by modifying one rewrite rule, I have ascending, chronological posts:
    RewriteRule ^([0-9]{4})/?([0-9]{1,2})?/?([0-9]{1,2})?/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/?([0-9]+)?/?$ /index.php?year=$1&monthnum=$2&day=$3&name=$4&page=$5&order=ASC [QSA]

    I’m sorry. I didn’t follow that. Can you be a bit more specific for a newbie like me? I added what you had to my .htaccess file, but nothing changed in archives. What else must I do? I’m trying to get the posts for an archived month to display from the first day of the month to the last day.
