I want WP to display dates like Blogger

My Blogger will display the archive posts by exact day, whereas WordPress only sorts it by month, and the most recent.

If you click on a month, it gives you all the blog posts for that month. Thats not what I want. I want it all sorted by the day as well as month and year.

Is there a plugin that can make this happen or do I need to edit archive.php?

If you dont understand the question, I'll post photos/examples.

Put simply, I want my posts to archive by month and day, not just month (which appearse to be the only default option).

I'm not sure if any of these offer "exactly" what you're looking for, but have a look at this list:

Yeah I've looked at that list a couple times. Screw it, I'll try each of those plugins if I have to. I'm going to give the 'KG Archives' plugin a shot. That one actually looks somewhat promising. I'll update you if it works.

This is simply what I'm trying to do.

edit: nah that plugin doesn't do it.

Here's maybe one more thing you can try, Fancy Archives:
http://voidsplat.org/code/wordpress/fancy-archives/

It uses javascript to organize your archives for you, just something for you to look at .

My man, I don't know how you found that. I think you just solved my problem.

son of a b^%. After editing the php and doing other crap, it isn't what I need.
If the demo was more elaborate I would have been able to tell.

Kyle I wrote out an answer for you in a different thread on using blogger since I saw your question there first. Here's a link to my answer. It's a pretty easy change to make.

Glad to help. WordPress can be customized a great many ways without having to understand too much of the underlying code. Some understanding yes, but not as much as it first seems.

When I first installed WordPress I spent a few days reading the codex and now when I want to see if I can customize WP in some way I go first to the codex and see what's there. More often than not you can achieve what you want with one of more of the template tags. Sometimes you can't, but more often than not you can.
