2,306 PointsProblem with One Page WordPress Site
I just watched the workshop 'One Page WordPress Site' and it is fantastic, but I have one question about it:
Is it possible to change the order of the pages on the one page site manually?
So the user of the WordPress site can change the order without coding?
Sincerely, Joren

<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'page',
'order' => 'ASC'
);
?>
You can change it to order by menu_order. This will allow you to order by the Order field in the Edit Page Attributes box. To do this, change your arguments to:
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'page',
'order' => 'ASC',
'orderby' => 'menu_order'
);
?>
For more info on ordering, see the Order & Orderby section of the WP_Query page in the WordPress Codex.

How can the user change the order of this pages now?
