Portfolio Management
Arrange your portfolio items to showcase your best work first, group similar projects together, or create a visual narrative of your creative journey.

Team Page Organization
Display team members by hierarchy, department, or seniority rather than by when they were added to the system.

Product Highlighting
Feature seasonal items, bestsellers, or new arrivals at the top of your WooCommerce shop without relying solely on sorting by date or price.

Content Curation
Create curated reading lists by manually ordering posts in the exact sequence you want readers to discover them.

FAQ Organization
Sort frequently asked questions by importance or topic, ensuring the most relevant questions appear first.

Testimonial Display
Show your most compelling testimonials first to maximize their impact on potential customers.

Action Hooks

Filter Hooks

Drag & Drop Engine
Choose between the modern, dependency-free SortableJS engine (default) and the classic jQuery UI sorter under Settings > SCPOrder. The classic engine remains fully supported as a fallback.

Advanced View Mode
Enable the advanced view in settings to see all registered post types, including those normally hidden from the admin menu.

Simple Custom Post Order works with:

The plugin uses WordPress’s native menu_order field for posts and pages, and adds a term_order column for taxonomy terms. This approach ensures compatibility and data persistence.

For support questions, please use the WordPress.org support forum.
