Story Order

Hey all,
I have a simple question that I just can't figure out. I used to have it that my stories used to be listed in reverse-chronological order (i.e. newest story first, oldest last). However, after I reformatted and remade my site, I can't find this setting again! I've looked through config.php as well as the admin panel in geeklog. The closest I can find is just a user preference..but you have to be logged in to see it that way. I want it that way as default.
Thanks in advance,
KM

hmmm..for some reason, my index just appends the new ones last. see my site (www.wannasblog.com) to see what I mean. I wonder how this is happening if it's coded to do just the opposite! Could having an incompatible theme have anything to do with it?
Thx,

well I fixed it. My index.php file said
$sql .= "ORDER BY featured DESC, date DESC";
I simply deleted the DESC and it all works great now!

OK..it turns out that that was NOT the problem. I am still having a terrible time with the story order. However, I think I have found the issue. I just don't know how to fix it. It seems to be ordering the stories bye the actual DAY that they wereposted on, not the date. It's ordering them Sunday - Saturday...not in chronological order of their DATE (i.e. the 10th or 11th or whatever). Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks in advance,
KM
