A new menu will appear on the admin side-menu under each content type that is defined on your site (posts, pages etc.) and it will also be added automatically to future custom post types you will add in the future. In addition, under the _Settings_ menu in WordPress you will find a general settings sub-menu to set global options for the plugin. **Something is wrong with this plugin on your site?

Download and install the plugin from WordPress plugin page. You can also upload the entire _wp-order-by_ folder to the _/wp-content/plugins/_ directory, if you wish to do it manually. 2. Activate the plugin through the _Plugins_ menu in WordPress 3. Go to the general settings page under: Settings -> Wp Order By Settings on your admin, or directly to a specific content type menu – (_Order By_ menu under posts, pages etc.), to define your order-by preferences for this specific content type. ## FAQ What if I want to retrieve settings to default? You should update your settings to the first option – _Date_ and check the _Descending_ order radio button, which is WordPress default ordering. You can make the update for a specific content type (e.g. posts) or from the main settings page under _settings- > WP Order By Settings_ if you want to make the change for all page/post/post-types on your site. What about support? You can mail me to [weiluri@gmail.com](https://cor.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-order-by/weiluri@gmail.com?output_format=md), or create a support ticket at WordPress forum and I will take care of any issue. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7d9dcbf653c69dbbf16555f572d9019a4e948f3e5c5e8e3674e274cd6142f547? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[supper plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/supper-plugin-7/)󠁿 [Sednadevelopers](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sednadevelopers/) Est 31, 2018 supper plugin its working well! in version 4.9.8 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/09b699f02f816f2a4ad71454b57f878dff028715804317a290636309600446c3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-9502/)󠁿 [nchrtd](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nchrtd/) Gwynngala 3, 2016 1 reply Very nice plugin, that does what it intends to do and nothing more. Uncomplicated UI and compared to drag’n’drop order-plugins I feel more in control with WP Order By. A gem! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dfda3a22e26d7e52d8d08fbbb5e58acabf8680493a1629d63783b58069281914? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Excellent plugin with terrific author!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-plugin-with-terrific-author/)󠁿 [Sinkadus](https://profiles.wordpress.org/niwin/) Gwynngala 3, 2016 I always enjoy a good and simple plugin – like this one. Does the job without bloat and problems. Also – big plus for an author that updates the plugin with the function you suggested within two days! Doesn’t get more professional than that. Thank you! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/00f468b171ef776e5b38f579c5e3d63dcbc693be06974b3e6d312e2629a0eb2f? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[nice](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-1479-2/)󠁿 [snoer](https://profiles.wordpress.org/snoer/) Gwynngala 3, 2016 this Plugin is slim and nice. It just does what it’s supposed to do. The Developer reacted very fast to my feature requests. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/82211526ef373f33322589d5fa96a3aa2acf751290c52eac632fba69ee7aba34? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Manual ordering of posts? No thanks!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/manual-ordering-of-posts-no-thanks/)󠁿 [Grey Man](https://profiles.wordpress.org/christopher-greenhough/) Gwynngala 3, 2016 I love this type of plugin, something that addresses a very specific need that is lacking elsewhere and does a really nice job of providing the solution. After wasting a lot of time trying to arm-wrestle my themes and plugins with kludgey code while I cast around for a solution, and finding other plugins that only allowed me to manually arrange my post order, this one finally allowed me to select a sorting option from a range of well thought-out criteria. As a bonus, the developer Uri is incredibly helpful and responsive to support requests and suggestions. What more can you ask? Nice work 🙂 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e592e0d8fbdb1fa82691582ab81a3427b9f82e543e9c143856c2a1a6012680e8? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Does the job](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-the-job-214/)󠁿 [eightiesfreek](https://profiles.wordpress.org/eightiesfreek/) Gwynngala 3, 2016 I didn’t found the drug and drop ordering plugins useful in my case because I have a lot of posts and it is exhausting drugging them around every time from the long list I have. this one did the job with some logic instead. thanks 🙂 [ Read all 7 reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-order-by/reviews/) ## Contributors & Developers “WP Order By” is open source software.
