Related Posts in Custom Order

[Sami]

I’m using the WP Show Posts Pro to display related posts manually by typing in the Post IDs. There are 10 different ways to order the posts but I can’t find one that does it in the order as I typed them in.

I searched a little and found that when I choose order by “post type” I can reorder them with drag and drop. However, in this case, I have to install a new plugin just for this and the biggest downside: all posts on the homepage are also reordered.

Do you know a more practical solution to order them manually?

Hi there,

The only way to order posts manually using WP Show Posts is using the Post IDs field as you already discovered.

Unfortunately, that’s not the case. When I choose order by “ID”, it doesn’t order them the way I typed them into the Post IDs field. It orders them after lower to higher ID-Number, which is basically the same as ordering them after the creation date. Changing the order in the Post IDs field doesn’t affect anything.
