Adds an admin panel when editing edit pages, to let you rearrange this page’s child pages and switch their display on/off.
This will only affect parts of your theme that display a list of links to child pages, and only those which respect the <code>menu_order</code> setting. It has no effect on Menus. You need to edit those with the existing menu interface.
Actually displaying the list of child pages is outside the scope of this plugin – there are plenty of themes and plugins that do that.
<h3>Developers</h3>
For developers, there are a lot of hooks exposed by this plugin, which you can use to add fields and behaviours
When displaying the meta box:
<ul>
<li><code>child_order_before_list</code> – Action called before writing the list of child pages in the admin area</li>
<li><code>child_order_before_item ($post)</code> – Action called at the start of each item</li>
<li><code>child_order_after_item ($post)</code> – Action called at the end of each item</li>
<li><code>child_order_after_list</code> – Action called after writing the whole list</li>
<li><code>child_order_item_title ($title, $post)</code> – Filter to control the title displayed for an item</li>
<li><code>child_order_message ($message)</code> – Filter to control the message displayed after the list</li>
</ul>
When saving (in AJAX):
<ul>
<li><code>child_order_children ($array, $parent_id)</code> – Filter to adjust the list of post IDs before saving</li>
<li><code>child_order_before_save ($array, $parent_id)</code> – Action called before saving the order of items</li>
<li><code>child_order_save_item ($id, $menu_order)</code> – Action called on saving each item</li>
<li><code>child_order_after_save ($array, $parent_id)</code> – Action called after saving the order of items</li>
</ul>
If you wish to remove the “Edit” and “View” buttons from the output, call this on setup:
<pre><code>remove_action('child_order_after_item', 'child_order_after_item_edit_link');
</code></pre>
Be aware that the internal workings of the plugin are subject to change, 
so the names and details of these hooks may change in future version.
