# Reverse post order

 * I have a new wordpress blog of which I will be the only poster in a single catagory.
   I want to have the posts display in reverse chronological order (the last post
   to show last and first post always at the top).
 * I’ve looked for a way to change it but can only find answers in this forum and
   those that I found are either not what I need or they are above my expertise.
   Can someone please hold my hand and take me through this mod? I am using the ‘
   Suffusion’ template.
 * Thx

 * The simpliest would be to make a Category Template (see [http://codex.wordpress.org/Category_Templates](http://codex.wordpress.org/Category_Templates))
   for that category, and in the template file, change the query posts to show them
   in DESC
 * `query_posts('order=DESC');`
 * See [http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts)
   for details.

 * Found an easy way around my problem. I simply change the date of the post and
   then disabled the date showing up in the post. It will work for me because I 
   only need 4-5 posts total and will be making very few changes on the site.
