<p>This plugin is intended as an aid to theme and plugin developers.</p>
<p>The purpose of the plugin is to allow arbitrary sorting of terms, similar to pages. This allows queries that<br />
fetch terms to use ‘menu_order’ as a sort order. Here’s an example:</p>
<pre><code>$terms = get_terms('category', array( 'orderby' => 'menu_order' ) );
</code></pre>
