    Either I missed something, or I'm surprised the answer isn't easier to find.
    • How do I set the comments areas to appear "older ones first", instead of defualt 'new comments on top'.

    The setting doesn't seem to be anywhere (in Admin) :confused:
    Thanks

    There is a plug-in.

    The site is in German but he has an English blurp that says:

    This plugin provides the function ro_comments_template(), which allows the comments of a post to be displayed in reverse order (thus the newest comments first, oldest last). I wrote it, because needed a simple way to turn a wordpress page into a typical guestbook. Detailed installation and usage instructions in english are included in the zip file.

    I cannot post links yet but if you Google

    reverse order comments zyblog

    you'll find it.

    peace . . .

    I thought the default was older ones at the top. :\

    Thats how my wordpress came. But it isnt the newest version so that is probably why.

    Here's a link to a description of the reverse order comment plugin and also the direct download:

    Lots of other great plugins are available there as well.
