   I'm using the latest 2.3.1 version.
   I've searched several hours, and tried to modify the php code to order the front page by post_modified.
   As I've figured out it is ordered now by post_date.

   I'm running a panorama photo blog, and the post_date refers to the time the photo was taken, but the date of post publishing differs.

   However, now I can't see those posts that I've published at last. I just want to sort the front page by post_modified, I think it will solve my problem.

   Can anybody help me?

   I keep trying...

   If I change the lines 763 and 765 of the general-template.php
   then it works justbackwards:

   The displayed timestamps will be the date of modify,
   but the sort order goes by post_date timestamp.

   I've found the solution,
   query.php line 1120 ;)

   just replace the

   $q['orderby'] = 'post_date '.$q['order'];

   line with

   $q['orderby'] = 'post_modified '.$q['order'];
