Sometimes, you can’t sort, either because you tap sort by name or by date and the drag and drop option disappears, there is no easy way to re-set the custom order.
Allows to order post types and taxonomies, so no need for 2 separate plugins,Uses drag and drop,And allows to order posts also when viewing posts only of a specific term
Really great, worked when other drag and drop post orders didn’t. Works with Elementor too. Excellent plugin!
A simple plugin, but which solves so many headaches and helps customise your content order with an easy drag and drop. Thanks a lot to developers!
