## Description

This plugin allows you to easily reorder your WordPress **posts** by dragging and
dropping them in the admin “All Posts” list.
 It updates each post’s `menu_order`
value and can optionally modify front-end queries so that posts are displayed in
the same order you set.

### Features

 * Adds a “Reorder” column with a drag handle in the Posts list.
 * Supports drag and drop reordering directly in the WordPress admin.
 * Saves order instantly via AJAX.
 * Optionally changes front-end queries to order by `menu_order` instead of date.
 * Lightweight, no external dependencies.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin folder `post-reorder-dragdrop` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` 
    directory, or upload the ZIP from Plugins  Add New.
 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Posts  All Posts**. You’ll see a new “Order” column with a drag handle.
 4. Drag posts to reorder them. The order is saved automatically.

## FAQ

### Does this work for Pages or Custom Post Types?

By default, it only applies to **Posts**.
 You can extend it by editing the plugin
code to register the reorder column for other post types.

### Will it affect my theme or other plugins?

It changes the `menu_order` field. If your theme or another plugin already uses `
menu_order`, you should test carefully.

### How do I disable the front-end reordering?

Comment out or remove the `pre_get_posts` action at the bottom of the main plugin
file.
