For Feature Requests

Desired Feature:
It would be amazing to be able to sort pages the way you can sort chapters! I often mess up the order and then need to correct it later.

Thank you for this awesome software!

I landed here looking for the same thing. Guessing I need to look harder or level-up my google-fu eh?
😆

update: looking for the sort? Look for the "︙More" button in the top right of the page. If you don't see 'Sort' then you need to navigate to the top of the 'Book' your trying to sort pages in and the 'Sort' option will be visible (it's not an option when you navigated down into the 'Chapter' or 'Page' views).

I will chime in that I'm another one that came here looking for the same thing. Seems like maybe the "sort" button could be active all the way down?

I found page sort can be in book sort level.

I would like to reorder some pages because I wanted to create an overview/introduction page. Any way to do this?

When you go to the Book there should be a “sort” command in the menu (under Edit)...

At first I thought you were misunderstanding me, but it worked! Thanks :)
