My Category Order allows you to set the order in which categories will appear in the sidebar. Uses a drag and drop interface for ordering. Adds a widget with additional options for easy installation on widgetized themes.

Change Log

2.8.3:

• Trying to fix Javascript onload issues. Settled on using the addLoadEvent function built into Wordpress. If the sorting does not initialize then you have a plugin that is incorrectly overriding the window.onload event. There is nothing I can do to help.
• This will also be the last version of this plugin I will release. I am working on a new "2.0" version that will only support WP 2.8 and greater. This jump will finally include the ability to have multiple widgets.

2.8.1:

• Added Czech translation (Jan)

2.8:

• Updated for 2.8 compatibility

2.7.1:

• If your categories don't show up for ordering your DB user account must have ALTER permissions, the plugin adds columns to store the order
• Added a call to $wpdb->show_errors(); to help debug any issues
• Translations added and thanks: Spanish (Karin), German (Wolfgang and Mike), Swedish (Mans), Italian (Stefano)

2.7:

• Updated for 2.7, now under the the new Pages menu
• Moved to jQuery for drag and drop
• Removed finicky AJAX submission
• Translations added and thanks: Russian (Flector and Pink), Dutch (Anja), Polish (Zbigniew)
• Keep those translations coming

2.6.1a:

• The plugin has been modified to be fully translated
• The plugin patch no correctly patches taxonomy.php
• New translation added : French, by Brahim Machkouri (http://www.category-icons.com)
• The widget has now a description

2.6.1:

• Finally no more taxonomy.php overwriting, well kind of. After you upgrade Wordpress visit the My Category Order page and it will perform the edit automatically.
• Thanks to Submarine at http://www.category-icons.com for the code.
• Also added string localization, email me if you are interested in translating.
