Cool Tool

Doing what it promissed. Very handy tool to sort the posts by yourself.

by himalkimchi

simple and working

thank you for good work

by ianstudio

Works in the regular interface unlike competitor BUT does not work with WPML

The other two add-ons I know about that do this need you to access a new backend page to do your organizing, this one is much more clever as it gives that ability directly in the direct page/interface
