I'm creating a new site in Drupal 5.7 hosted at SiteGround. I'm collecting data (news) from two older sites, and I will move them into this new site.
So ... I was thinking of creating a blog .... that way every new news item goes to the top of the list and the old news items get pushed down. The problem is that since I am collecting data from other sites, I would like to sort these things myself. For example as I create these entries, I will include a date that the news item happened, I would like it sorted in that Chronological order with the most recent first. If I just create a blog and I add items out of data order, I am afraid they will appear in the blog out of order.
So, since I haven't looked at the blog, can I edit the create date and put it in the order I want? If so that's great, then I can create my entries and they will be sorted on the date I entered, not on the actual date I created the node. If that solution won't work, what is an alternative solution?
Thanks for the help! Tom
