Post Order Manager

Beskrivning

You can choose which post types are reorderable via the settings, and use a simple drag-and-drop interface to instantly save the new order.

Ideal for:

  • Custom post types like ”Projects”, ”Team Members”, ”Testimonials”

  • Manually arranging featured content

  • Developers who use menu_order for template control

Features

  • Reorder posts via drag-and-drop

  • Updates the menu_order field in real time

  • Choose which post types to enable ordering for

  • Clean admin UI (under Settings Post Order)

  • Uses AJAX and jQuery UI for instant updates

  • Works with built-in and custom post types

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/post-order-manager directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugin screen.

  2. Activate the plugin.

  3. Go to Settings Post Order.

  4. Select the post types you want to enable ordering for.

  5. Drag and drop to reorder posts — changes are saved instantly.

Vanliga frågor

Does it support custom post types?

Yes! You can reorder any public post type — just enable it in the settings.

What does it update in the database?

It updates the menu_order field of posts, which WordPress themes and queries can use to display content in custom order.

Will this change affect front-end display?

Only if your theme or query uses orderby => 'menu_order'. It gives you full control without forcing changes.

Can I undo the order?

Currently no reset button — but we may add it in a future update.
