Description
Aimed at archivists and other WordPress developers who use the names of individuals as page titles, this plugin sorts wp_list_pages
-generated page lists by last name. More generally, the plugin can also be used to sort wp_list_pages
-generated page lists by the last word of any page’s title.
Installation
After installing and activating, developers can order any wp_list_pages
-generated page list by surname — or, more generally, last word — using the sortbylastname=1
parameter, e.g., <?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&sortbylastname=1'); ?>
. Use a “0” to (temporarily) disable the plugin.

. As such, if developers edit the plugin using the WordPress code editor, they should add an extra backslash (\
) in front of then
before saving the file (e.g,$lines = explode("\\n", $val);
). The line will revert to$lines = explode("\n", $val);
on save.Interested in helping develop the Sort Page List by Last Name plugin? Visit the GitHub repository: https://github.com/studiohyperset/sort-page-list-by-last-name
