how are posts from multiple feeds ordered?

    For campaigns aggregated from multiple feeds what is the order of the posts in the database? Strictly by date? Ordered by feed and then date, or what? The issue I’m trying to address is that if at all possible I’d like an evenly distributed mix of posts from all the feeds. I don’t want a single feed to starve the other feeds. Obviously if a feed has dried up, i.e. no new posts in a long time then we can’t expect to see its posts in a multi-feed aggregation. But if all feeds feature posts within a couple of days of each other I would expect a nice mix. How can this be controlled?

    Hello @nbi1,
    The campaigns read feed by feed from top to bottom and the feed items as they are sorted into the feed. Usually by date. The way they are displayed depends entirely on the wordpress theme. If you check the option to use the date of the feed item (the feed must have the date tag) you may have mixed up all the items in your post list.

    Regards
