I've Seen Other Blogs Do This

How do you put a post at the top of your blog, despite having other entries throughout the day or week? (i.e. how do you bump a post) Do you change the date? Enquiring minds want to know. :)

ok smilies I can't help with (although I'm sure it's straighjt forward)

To bump a post - post it as normal and then, once it's posted, edit the posted date at the bottom of the post edit screen. You can set it minutes, hours or days in the future and it will stay at the top until you post something which has a later date ... easy

One blog I visit has a blank entry permanently at the top of his blog, which seems to work though I don't know why.

Some time ago, I compiled a lsit of help sites: not sure if all will show or are still active.
I am not a blogger, so cannot help directly, but -

*Tabbed IE! front-end allows 6 tabbed windows using IE browser - and can have multiple MyIE open if need more* see plugin Trackback v.0.9 (grossfinch) 17KB - Trackback is very popular in blog and many news source websites.

*MT Users: Comments*
