Child Order for WordPress

Adds an admin panel when editing edit pages, to let you rearrange this page’s child pages and switch their display on/off.

This will only affect parts of your theme that display a list of links to child pages, and only those which respect the menu_order setting. It has no effect on Menus. You need to edit those with the existing menu interface.

Actually displaying the list of child pages is outside the scope of this plugin – there are plenty of themes and plugins that do that.

Developers For developers, there are a lot of hooks exposed by this plugin, which you can use to add fields and behaviours

When displaying the meta box:

child_order_before_list – Action called before writing the list of child pages in the admin area

child_order_before_item ($post) – Action called at the start of each item

child_order_after_item ($post) – Action called at the end of each item

child_order_after_list – Action called after writing the whole list

child_order_item_title ($title, $post) – Filter to control the title displayed for an item

child_order_message ($message) – Filter to control the message displayed after the list

When saving (in AJAX):

child_order_children ($array, $parent_id) – Filter to adjust the list of post IDs before saving
