<p>As a whole, the new WordPress Admin panel is organized fairly well, however when it comes to editing posts or pages quickly without having to open each post or page in a new tab or window, it isn’t a very efficient process. For those who are using <strong>WordPress as a CMS</strong>, it’s important to be able to manage contents easily and quickly. That’s what this plugin helps to do.</p>
<p>It adds some icons to the posts/pages management panel with <strong>AJAX-driven</strong> CMS-known functions like toggling post/page visibility, changing publication date and title <strong>without having to open the edit screens or reload the page</strong>, <strong>plus changing page order with drag’n’drop</strong>, inline category management and inline tag management, plus much more.</p>

<h4>Notes on changing page order via Drag’n’Drop</h4>
<p>Since Version 1.0 it is possible to change page order via drag’n’drop. Currently it’s only possible to drag top level pages, that means only those pages with no parent pages. It is planned to make it possible for child pages, though.</p>

<p>Post Order Control provides an intuitive drag-and-drop interface for reordering posts, pages, and custom post types directly in the WordPress admin. Built with accessibility and theme compatibility in mind, this plugin uses WordPress’s standard <code>menu_order</code> field for maximum compatibility.</p>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Drag-and-drop ordering</strong> directly in WordPress admin post/page lists</li>
<li><strong>WordPress Standard</strong>: Uses built-in <code>menu_order</code> field for maximum theme compatibility</li>
<li><strong>Modern admin interface</strong> with tabbed settings and comprehensive documentation</li>
<li><strong>Taxonomy ordering</strong> for categories, tags, and custom taxonomies</li>
<li><strong>Auto-apply option</strong> to automatically use custom order on frontend</li>
<li><strong>REST API</strong> for fetching/saving ordering with nonce and capability checks</li>

<li><strong>Export/Import</strong> functionality for backing up ordering data</li>
<li><strong>Accessible design</strong> with keyboard navigation and screen reader support</li>
<li><strong>I18n ready</strong> with included POT file</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<p>This plugin uses WordPress’s built-in <code>menu_order</code> field to store post ordering:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Drag-and-drop</strong> updates the <code>menu_order</code> value for each post</li>
<li><strong>Theme queries</strong> using <code>orderby => 'menu_order'</code> automatically respect your custom order</li>
<li><strong>No custom database tables</strong> or complex queries needed</li>
<li><strong>Full compatibility</strong> with any theme or plugin that supports <code>menu_order</code></li>
</ul>
<h4>Theme Integration</h4>
<p>The plugin provides multiple ways to integrate with your theme:</p>
<p><strong>Method 1: Helper Function (Recommended)</strong><br />
    <code>php<br />
$posts = postordercontrol_get_ordered_posts( array(<br />
    'post_type' => 'post',<br />
    'posts_per_page' => 10,<br />
    'post_status' => 'publish',<br />
) );</code></p>
<p><strong>Method 2: Standard WP_Query</strong><br />
    <code>php<br />
$query = new WP_Query( array(<br />
    'post_type' => 'post',<br />
    'orderby' => 'menu_order',<br />
    'order' => 'ASC',<br />
    'posts_per_page' => 10,<br />
) );</code></p>
<p><strong>Method 3: Auto-Apply (Global)</strong><br />
Enable automatic ordering for all frontend queries in the plugin settings.</p>
<h4>Taxonomy Ordering</h4>
<p>The plugin also supports drag-and-drop ordering for taxonomies:</p>
<ul>
<li>Enable taxonomies in the Advanced settings tab</li>
<li>Drag and drop terms in taxonomy admin pages</li>
<li>Use <code>wp_list_categories()</code> with <code>orderby => 'meta_value_num'</code> and <code>meta_key => 'postordercontrol_term_order'</code></li>
</ul>
<h4>Capabilities</h4>
<ul>
<li>By default, users with <code>edit_posts</code> capability can manage ordering</li>
<li>Optionally restrict to <code>manage_options</code> (Administrators only) via Settings</li>
</ul>
<h3>Support</h3>
<p>For support, feature requests, or bug reports, please visit the plugin’s support forum or create an issue in the repository.</p>
<h3>Privacy Policy</h3>
<p>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 <code>menu_order</code> field and term meta.</p>
<h3>Credits</h3>
<p>Built with ❤️ by wpunicorn. Uses WordPress’s built-in functionality for maximum compatibility and performance.</p>
