Category post order broken?

    Hi there!

    I have a website where I display the 5 newest posts at the bottom of the home page.

    I don’t know when this broke — it was working properly a couple weeks ago — but for some reason it stopped listing posts in proper order.

    I’ve just tried a few different “list all posts in a category” plugins and all of them seem to be doing exactly the same thing — listing the posts sorted by date (oldest to newest). I need them showing newest to oldest. I’ve even tried sorting by title, just for fun — NO GO!

    I can’t seem to get them to display in any other order. At this point, I have no idea what to do.

    Do any of you use plugins/shortcode/etc to display the last 5 posts in the content of a page (not using a widget)? Does it work properly? If so, which plugin do you use?

    Thanks!

    bah!

    It was a plugin I was using, called “Custom Post Order” – it must have updated recently and started overriding all pages on the site (rather than on individual category pages). I unchecked “Apply to all categories” and the home page went back to normal.

    Thanks. 😉
