Posts are randomized

  • Hello,

    Let’s say I wrote 10 posts and they came on the front page naturally as 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Now, starting with WP version 3.8 or 3.9, my posts are arranged on the front page as 8, 6, 10, 1, 5 etc. and not in the natural order. And they stay like this for 1-2 days then they randomize again, never in the natural order that I wrote them.

    I checked the theme’s code, everything seems fine as it was before because nothing was changed meanwhile. I am also not using any plugin that may cause this to happen.

    There is also another aspect: the DATE itself changes without interference from me. WP just changes the dates from all posts.

    Can anyone help me?

    If the dates are changing you have two likely causes:

    1) Code in a theme or plugin

    2) A really insane DB glitch.

    I’d bet on #1. What plugins are you running?

    I see it happens on another install too.

    So it must be a plugin used on both.
    I use on both installs:
    – Advanced Automatic Updates
    – All In One SEO Pack
    – Dagon Design Sitemap Generator
    – Exec-PHP
    – Google XML Sitemaps
    – LinkWorth
    – Lockdown WP Admin
    – SEO SearchTerms Tagging 2
    – WP-DBManager
    – WPtouch Mobile Plugin
    – WP-PageNavi

    The only plugin NOT used in a non-affected install is ‘SEO SearchTerms Tagging 2’. I’ll see what I can find in it’s coding.

    SEO SearchTerms Tagging 2 did it because, after I uninstalled the plugin, it never happened afterwards.
