Built with accessibility and theme compatibility in mind, this plugin uses WordPress’s standard` menu_order` field for maximum compatibility. #### Key Features * **Drag-and-drop ordering** directly in WordPress admin post/page lists * **WordPress Standard**: Uses built-in `menu_order` field for maximum theme compatibility * **Modern admin interface** with tabbed settings and comprehensive documentation * **Taxonomy ordering** for categories, tags, and custom taxonomies * **Auto-apply option** to automatically use custom order on frontend * **REST API** for fetching/saving ordering with nonce and capability checks * **Helper function** `postordercontrol_get_ordered_posts()` for easy theme integration * **Export/Import** functionality for backing up ordering data * **Accessible design** with keyboard navigation and screen reader support * **I18n ready** with included POT file #### How It Works This plugin uses WordPress’s built-in `menu_order` field to store post ordering: * **Drag-and-drop** updates the `menu_order` value for each post * **Theme queries** using `orderby => 'menu_order'` automatically respect your custom order * **No custom database tables** or complex queries needed * **Full compatibility** with any theme or plugin that supports `menu_order` #### Theme Integration The plugin provides multiple ways to integrate with your theme: **Method 1: Helper Function (Recommended)** `php $posts = postordercontrol_get_ordered_posts( array( 'post_type' => 'post', 'posts_per_page' => 10, 'post_status' => 'publish',)); **Method 2: Standard WP_Query** `php $query = new WP_Query( array( 'post_type' => 'post', 'orderby' => 'menu_order', 'order' => 'ASC', 'posts_per_page' => 10, )); **Method 3: Auto-Apply (Global)** Enable automatic ordering for all frontend queries in the plugin settings. #### Taxonomy Ordering The plugin also supports drag-and-drop ordering for taxonomies: * Enable taxonomies in the Advanced settings tab * Drag and drop terms in taxonomy admin pages * Use `wp_list_categories()` with `orderby => 'meta_value_num'` and `meta_key = > 'postordercontrol_term_order'` #### Capabilities * By default, users with `edit_posts` capability can manage ordering * Optionally restrict to `manage_options` (Administrators only) via Settings ### Support For support, feature requests, or bug reports, please visit the plugin’s support forum or create an issue in the repository. ### Privacy Policy This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. All ordering data is stored locally in your WordPress database using WordPress’s standard `menu_order` field and term meta. ### Credits Built with ❤️ by wpunicorn.

Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/post-order-control/` 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress 3. Go to **Settings Post Order Control** to configure the plugin 4. Start ordering your content by visiting your post type admin pages ## FAQ ### How do I reorder posts? The easiest way is directly in the WordPress admin: 1. Go to **Posts All Posts** or **Pages All Pages** 2. You’ll see a new «Order» column with drag handles (⋮⋮) 3. Simply drag any row up or down to reorder 4. The order saves automatically when you drop the row ### Will this work with my theme? Yes! This plugin uses WordPress’s standard `menu_order` field, which is supported by most themes. If your theme doesn’t automatically use the custom order, you can: 1. Enable «Auto Apply Sort» in the plugin settings, or 2. Modify your theme queries to use `orderby => 'menu_order'` ### Can I order custom post types? Yes! The plugin supports any public post type. Enable them in the General settings tab. ### Can I order categories and tags? Yes! Enable taxonomies in the Advanced settings tab, then drag and drop terms in their respective admin pages. ### How do I display ordered posts in my theme? Use the helper function `postordercontrol_get_ordered_posts()` or modify your WP_Query to use `orderby => 'menu_order'`. See the plugin’s «How To» tab for detailed examples. ### Can I backup my ordering data? Yes! Use the Export/Import feature in the Advanced settings tab to backup and restore your ordering data. ## Reseñas ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c0bacbfd03e3ae27342f5a69db2bb26ed21e196a3f9a746390df68a3108fdd29? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Very useful](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-useful-3672/)󠁿 [wpsuntzu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wpsuntzu/) 4 de octubre de 2025 I’ve been looking for this feature for a while. It would be great if you could add the ability to drag pages under other pages to make them subpages directly (I know this might require changing the URLs).
