Most blogs displays comments from the older to the younger. I have seen many bloggers who asked how to reverse the comment list order, so here’s a recipe.
That’s super easy: We only need the array_reverse() php function.
For those who knows at least a bit of the php programming language, you probably already heard about the array_reverse() function. This function takes an array as argument, and return it reversed.
Just open the comments.php file from your theme. Find the following line:
<?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>
Now, add this line below:
<?php $comments = array_reverse($comments, true); ?>
The code should look like this:
<?php $comments = array_reverse($comments, true); ?> <?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?> // comments loop <?php endforeach; ?>
That's all. Comments are now displayed in reverse order.

Cool! Thanks a lot
Very strange. I have put your code in the template but it creates an infinite loop so the page keeps on loading and reloading comments.
My bad, i thought it read to add the line below the first part of the code… works well.
very good but when i am logged in as admin the order isn’t changed it is only changed when I am not logged in (which is fine for the public) but it looks a bit odd when people are editing the site
