Thanks again for the reply. I’m not asking about the order of the posts. I have the posts (episodes) reordered as I want them through another plugin. So, using my earlier example, they are already in order 1 (Prologue), 2, 3, 4, 5, chronological order. But, DD Last Viewed is not returning the last viewed. It always returns episode 1 (Prologue) on my site. Please take a look at townhousealley.com. DD Last Viewed widget is in footnote 1, left side. I’m trying out a different plugin in footnote 2, middle, and its results are also not what I expected. Any further thoughts are welcome. See the contact me page in the menu if you prefer to correspond by email directly. Thanks.

In my example with the episodes in order of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, my understanding of DD Last Viewed is that it will return episode 1 as last viewed because it thinks the episode post at the top of the list, episode 1, is the most recent adn I want it to think episode 5 is the most recent.

Thank you for the reply, but unfortunately, I am not a programmer. Let me describe my issue again. The normal post order is reverse chron, for example: the order of posts woudld be 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 from most recent 5 to oldest 1. I want to order my posts in chron, for example 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 from oldest at the top 1 to newest at the bottom 5. My blog is a story with new episodes posted. When you read a book, you start with chapter 1 and proceed through the chapters. That is why I want episode 1 at the top so the reader will proceed down through the episodes. Assuming that a reader had read episodes 1, 2, and 3 on their previous visit to my site. I wanted to remind them that they last read episode 3 so they know to start on episode 4, just like you would have a bookmark in a book at the end of episode 3. With 5 episodes, this is not a big issue, but with 10 or 20 episodes, remembering where you as the reader left off is a bigger issue. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
