    Hi dev,

    I would like to change last posts' sorting from published to modified on home and category pages. Can be done without using any plugin?

    Hi,

    You can change this via Appearance → Customize → General → General Setting, check Display Modified Date Replace with Published Date.

    Regards,
    PenciDesign.

    Hi,

    As far as I can see that option just change which info is displayed. I would like posts to be sorted by modified date (last update) instead of by publish date.

    Hi,

    Please install the Code Snippet plugin then create a new snippet with the following content:

    function lazybit_orderby_modified_posts( $query ) {
    if( $query->is_main_query() && !is_admin() ) {
        $query->set( 'orderby', 'modified' );
        $query->set( 'order', 'desc' );
    }
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'lazybit_orderby_modified_posts' );

    Regards,
    PenciDesign.
