Ordering the posts according to chronology was something I was searching for but couldn’t find any plugin that could customize it for the specific categories. The most amazing feature is that it’s pretty to use! Just install and tick the category whose order you wanna change! Thanks a ton! This topic was modified 5 years, 9 months ago by Bhavika Mahale.
