Story Map Journal is one of the more popular and powerful Story Maps, and is*ideal when you want to combine narrative text with maps and other embedded content. A Map Journal contains entries, or sections, that users scroll through. Each section in a Map Journal has an associated map, image, video or web page. Actions can also be defined in journal sections so that, for example, clicking a word automatically zooms the section’s map to a particular location.

By default, Story Map Journal sections/entries are shown in order, just like you would read chapters in a book. The last section created is the last chapter in your journal. Below is an example (Atlas for a Changing Planet) that flows like a book, from first section to last:



But what about a blog?

In some cases, you may want to have your Story Map Journal ordered like a blog, with the most recent section first. To reverse the order, in builder mode go to any section and click Organize:



Then check the box to Display sections in reverse order, highlighted below:



Apply and save your changes when finished.

Instead of ordering sections as they are written, your Story Map Journal now orders the sections in “blog style” with the most recently added section first.
