Is it possible to sort Latest post ordered by publish date and *time*? I often write a multi-part series in advance and publish all on the same date. Post1 (part 1/intro) is published at 1:00pm, then Post2 (part 2) at 1:10pm and then Post3 (part 3) at 1:20pm on the same day. The problem is “Latest” displays the series in reverse sequence because Post3 @ 1:20pm is newest, then Post2 and Post1.
I’m converting from another theme to Newspaper v8.7.2. My preference is to continue using Advanced Posts Type Order by NSP Code, but it’s not compatible with Newspaper.
Seems the solution is in td_data_source.php but it can’t be overridden in a child theme, so I have two feature requests:
* An option to disable the Newspaper internal sort algorithms and revert back to standard WordPress WP_Query for plugin compatibility.
* Or an option for Latest posts to sort by date, then subsort by time in ascending order.
Thanks
Hi,
That is not possible with the current theme options, that is how the latest sorting works and the intended way. The latest posts will be displayed in the order of publishing.
I honestly could not say if there are any plans to make modifications to the sorting options unfortunately. One method of arranging the posts as you want in the grids/blocks would be to enter their IDs in the post Id filter, but that may not be a solution since you would have to keep editing the page

Thank you!
