Though we can specify order explicitly in queries like below
Posts.objects.order_by('published')
it is repetitive and most of the times we will want to order by a particular field.
We can specify the order in the models like this
class Post(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=140) content = models.TextField() published = models.DateTimeField() def __unicode__(self): return self.title class Meta: ordering = ['published']
