    Either way – This was not really a petition for whether or not anyone else thinks this is a good system, and I’m not out to convert people – Ignorance is bliss

    I just really would like to find out if anyone know in what part of the WordPress code the redirection is enforced so I can try to alter it.
    If I could figure this out I was also planning on looking into plugin-making so that I could bring this as an option to people that would like to give it a go as well.

    In short… On topic, please?

    Well it’s a shame “all” bloggers don’t know any better, and it doesn’t make it any more convenient or correct. It’s just as useful as something like permlinks, with this method content stays on a static page instead of being shifted for each new post (SEO!)

    It works pretty good in books if you ask me.

    Only problem with that solution is if you’re using the class “comment-text” to add a box around the text for instance, the <p></p> tags that are automatically wrapped around that text adds a big space to the bottom of that box.

    ----------
    | Text... |
    | (space) |
    ----------

    I’d also like to know if there’s some way to disable the tags without having to mess around with the php files.

    Understandable, it should at least however be a possibility. And there’s always room for a new standard, people could start expecting this to be how a blog should be if it was just presented more often.
    Oh well, if anyone don’t have a solution I’ll have to keep on reading through all the code.
    I’m basicly trying to figure out where in the code it’s desided to display page one on the front page. If I manage to change that to the highest numbered page I’d be all set cause I’ve figured out all the rest needed done.

    Well if you’ve posted 40 posts there would be 4 pages given there’s a 10 posts per page limit. This way I’d like page 4, namely the “highest numbered page”, to be the default shown on the front page. Now clicking “previous entries” (or “older entries” not to cause any confusion) would go to page 3.

    I made an illustration yesterday if it makes any sense, just think of it as a book (and it’s 5 posts per page limit)

    I know exactly what you mean, Novac, and I’m trying to find a solution to this as well, if you haven’t yet though considering it’s been over half a years since this post. I am surprised WordPress shifts old posts onto and incremented page number making it completely dynamic so for example if you direct someone to page 40 today to tell them to “check out the second post on that page”, in a week of some blogging all the posts on page 40 will be newer ones and the infamous second post is no longer there in it’s place.
    I’m also surprised people are having such a hard time understanding this book-sort-of-logic to page orders vs older/newer material.

    It can’t be put more simply:
    – page/1/ needs to list oldest posts in blog
    – page/2/ (and up) needs to list newer posts in blog
    – front page show the highest page number, for example page/4/ if there’s 40 posts so far with a 10 posts per page limit
    – clicking the “previous entries” link on the front page brings you to page/3/, then page/2/ etc.
