This plugin adds a Stories custom post type with thumbnails and revisions enabled and three taxonomies: Works, Sections and Licenses.
The Works taxonomy can be sorted by drag and drop. You can embed the list of works in any entry using the [indexofstories] shortcode. The taxonomies Sections and Licenses are prefilled the first time you run the plugin with some common terms.
The plugin adds also a widget to display the latest stories with their title, thumbnail and taxonomic classification. A default image is displayed when thumbnails are enabled in the widget options but the story has no featured image selected.
It contains actions to add the custom post type to Anthologize and Google XML Sitemap plugins, and includes Spanish and Catalonian translations.

Order Up!
A series of plugins for WordPress which allow for the ordering of pages, posts, and taxonomies through a simple 
drag-and-drop interface using the available WordPress scripts and styles. The plugins are extremely lightweight, 
without a bunch of unnecessary scripts to load into the admin. They also fall in line gracefully with the look 
and feel of the WordPress interface.
