WP PostOrder

What?

Wordpress can be used as a cms but it doesnt permit to order the posts in an arbitrary order, by default it orders posts by post date or post id.

To solve this issue, i’ve created a plugin that permits to orders posts and to choose when, where and how posts must be ordered.

Features?

Possible order fields are:
- Post Date
- Post ID
- Post Title
- Arbitrarily Order Number

This plugin permits to define an order field for:
- Time archive (day, year, month, time)
- Search Results
- Author posts list
- Default order field for category posts list
- Custom order field for each category (if not specified, use default describeb above)

And permits to define an posts order number when order criteria is “Order Number”

Installation?

Copy directory “wp-postorder” in your wordpress plugins directory.
Go to Plugins List in administration section and activate it. On install, the plugin will create a database table named “prefixterm_ordercriteria” (tipically wp_term_ordercriteria) to save the selected order criteria in category update.

Usage?

When installed the plugin doesnt order anything. You can find the options page in “Options > Post Order Options”.
You have to select the default category order criteria and the other archive order criteria to see something different on your lists.
Default post order number is 0 (zero) so all post have same priority.
