Most people don't need this plugin. Most wouldn't notice a difference if they had it. All it does is change the default sort order of a WP_Query from posts.post_date to posts.post_date_gmt -- that is, sort on the GMT timestamp of a post rather than the local time zone.<\/p>\n

Who needs this? People who switch time zones frequently. People running a network installation of WordPress where they want to be able to aggregate posts from all their network blogs easily, and in the right order. I don't know. I wrote it for FreeThoughtBlogs.com, so their \"most recent posts\" sidebar would stop showing only posts from a few blogs in early time zones. If it works for you, great.<\/p>\n

I have every hope that this plugin will be made obsolete by the default sort order being changed in the WordPress core. I can think of no good reason why comments are sorted by GMT but posts by local time.<\/p>\n

For all I know, this plugin works with older versions than 3.0. I've only tested it with 3.2.1.<\/p>\n\n\n

The same as with any other WordPress plugin:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Upload posts-by-gmt.php<\/code> to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory.<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in Wordpress.<\/li>\n
  3. That's it. There are no configuration options.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

    Are there any frequently asked questions?<\/h4>\n

    Not yet.<\/p>\n\n\n
