 * Activated this on a multisite install and it works fine to sort under “Re-Order”.
   However, on the regular first page of posts sorting by date or title no longer
   works when the plugin is activated.

 * Most probably you use the Autosort ON functionality which will apply the sort
   automatically to any query, including your regular first page. Turn the Autosort
   OFF and include ‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order’ within queries where sort need to apply.

 * Thanks for your reply. It wasn’t the “Auto Sort” setting that caused this behavior.
   It was the “Admin Sort” setting.
