Ordering Pages in WordPress
by Paul Flyer
The Pages functionality within WordPress adds a lot of flexibility. A list of links to the Pages within WordPress can be created using the wp_list_pages function. The default behavior for this function is to list the pages alphabetically. What if a different sort order is desired?
Within WordPress Administration, click Manage, then Pages. Select a page to edit. Underneath the main text window is a series of options. Page Order is one of those options. Enter a number for the order in which the selected page is to appear in the list. Order all pages accordingly.
When creating the list, the PHP will look like the following:
<?php wp_list_pages(’sort_column=menu_order&title_li=Your Title’); ?>
The Recommended Web Tools By Category list in the left nav bar is an example of a Pages link list.
For more information see the WordPress codex.
Be sure to review our list of recommended web tools.
