Been using this for years now. Never disappoints. Thanks Dev Team. God bless you all in Christ Jesus

We need a custom order button in the title of the post listing table

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.

Great plugin

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

Worked when others didn’t
