Stephanie, I see you have several answers to your question, I do know that post show the most current first, I not sure looks, like a date thing. As far as pages, you control those via menu is my understanding. You can move your pages around in your menu in order you would like them to show up. Hope this helps.

Yes your 'blog roll' will show your latest post first with your previous posts following. In Kyle's training you should only have 'external links' (links that direct the reader to another website or vendor) in your blog roll but can and should have 'internal links' (links that direct your reader to content within your website) throughout all of your pages and content. The button that looks link a chain link in your editor bar will be where you add your links. Take a look at the following training.

How to Add Affiliate Links

You could have a Resources page and use external links or hyperlinks to use hyperlinks you need the following code

Visit the British bipolar society

the first part the http is the web address in full of where you want to send them and the text between the chevrons is the wording people will see. When you print the page there is a drop down part that says position so you have it in the third tab or fourth of fifth or wherever you like

Well, I am still fairly new so I will answer from my experience.But, there may be better answers ;]
Ok, content page equals post in my mind. I have my blog set up to where the current post goes to the top, Seems like you do as well.
You can add links during the creation of content on the bar there is an icon that looks rather like a paperclip. There is one that is to link, one to unlink. So if you want to add links, click that and put in URL of it, I also have mine open in a new page. You check the box.
I am Bipolar, so you interest me and I wanted to try to help ;]

What is wood press?

Hi, STenney,
It might be just that I have not heard of this site before, but I would guess that spelling is the problem. Is it WoRd Press and not WoOd Press? Just asking . MissChris

Thanks, I solved my on problem. Hope you are having a good day.

Hello, Sharon. I had this problem for a while. Try logging out of WA, close your browser, go potty or get a drink, relax, then log in again. If this doesn't do it, check plugins as Marvin said or put a ticket in to support. Hope this helps! Peggy

Have you added any new plugins recently? I had this problem before and had to send in a help ticket to WA. They went into my site and fixed the problem, and advised me to, before installing, make sure a plugin is compatible with my version of WordPress. If not, they can cause problems.
