Perfect for Series and Courses
Does something very simple, very easily - that is to make the posts chronological. This is excellent for any type of study - a book, a series, a course or even programs. This should have been an automatic option in WP. It would be nice to have options to make some categories chono and others non-chrono. Thats another level

Perfect for creating a online course
The plugin was just what I needed. It is perfect for my online course. I use the category for the course title and the posts for the chapters. Thank you.

Good Stuff, but...
When reversing posts, the labels Next Post/Prev Post remains the same. It means that in order to chronologically continue reading you have to click Prev Post instead of Next Post. It's kind of misleading.

Simple and It Works
Probably the least painful -- as in 0 on a 10 scale -- of any plugin I've used on WordPress. It works. Boom.
