Pages appear in the Pages widget and/or in navigation tabs across the top of some themes. Pages are usually displayed alphabetically, but you can change the order pages are displayed in by using the order field in your attribute module on the Page screen.
In the example below the four pages About, Blogging Projects, Contact, My Other Sites would normally appear in this order. Changing the order field for each page makes the pages display in order of About, Contact, My Other Sites, Blogging Projects in the top navigation area.
How to change order of pages
The Blogging Project page was made to appear last as follows:
- Click Pages > Edit on the menu.
- Find the page Blog Project and click the action link Quick Edit.
- In the Attributes module put the number 5 in the text field for Order. This tells your blog to make this the fifth page in the list.
- Click the Update Page button.
The process was repeated for the other pages, but using numbers 2, 3, 4 for the Order field. This told the blog to make these pages the second, third and fourth items in the list.
Please note:
- In this theme Home has been hard coded to display “Home” link as the first page.
- If you are using the Pages Widget, you need to edit the page widget as follows:
- Click on the Sort By dropdown
- Change it to Page Order.
- Then click the Save
