   Hi,

   does anyone know how to organize pages and other lists or categories in non-alphabetical order?
   I manage to do so in the admin part, but there are no changes in the actual website, they are all alphabetically ordered.

   Help please!!!

   I don't have any info for you. It can take a couple of days for someone who knows anything to drop by, see your question (if you hadn't taken it out of the "no replies" queue by replying within 5 minutes that is), and figure out some help.

   A little patience - it's not a matter of life and death.

   Try David Coppit's Category Order plugin. Follow the link and it's at the end of the page, it will let you sort your categories in any way you want them.

   ATTENTION NEWBIE! (searched trough the whole forum and docs but found no help...)

   Hi wordpress-afficiandos,

   ok, so I can jump, I can run, I can do a lot of wonderfull things... I digged deep into wordpress, started to set it up, design the templates with CSS, installed a horde of plugins, I've learned a lot but still, I am not able to do one simple thing:

   I would like to arrange/list the "pages" links in my navigation in non alphabetical order.

   Please see here: http://www.mwl.ch/wordpress/

   You see the main nav in the order of...
   ENERGIE - KILLAH - KONTAKT - MISS SIXTY - MWL - NEWSLETTER - SIXTY

   While I would like to change it to...
   MISS SIXTY - KILLAH - ENERGIE - SIXTY - MWL - NEWSLETTER - KONTAKT

   The plugin mentioned by hexdj seems to do this only for the categories, as stated in his description; "This plugin allows the blog administrator to set an explicit ordering, spacing, and indentation of categories in the category list that appears in the sidebar." But not for pages.

   It could be, that the solution lies so close, but I can't see it until now...

   Any help would be apreciated!

   Hey I downloaded 'mypageorder' and it works great but only for pages I created through my admin section.

   Let me explain. I edited my header.php so I could make links appear in my navigation but whenever I use something that controls pages, those links are never included, has someone other than me encountered this problem?

   easier than I expected:

   go to prsentation>widgets>page (settings) and set it to sort by page order. Then set each page's position by manage>pages>yourpagehere> and set the 'page order' figure.

   note that the pages all start with a figure of 0 so if you set one page to 1, it will initially appear at the bottom of the list ;)
