Reorder links in menu

I'm using the default starter kit with 7.1 and after laying out some pages in a sub level the menu that is generated for them did fine except it isn't in the order I would like.

I also am using the blog section and would like to see that displayed from the newest to the oldest. I just haven't figured out how to make that happen yet.

Thoughts? Kip....

Hi Kip

If you edit the Blog Overview template, you can change line 12 from
```
@foreach(var post in CurrentPage.Children) 
```
to
```
@foreach(var post in CurrentPage.Children.OrderBy("CreateDate desc")) 
```
This will sort the blog posts in descending order by their creation date.

Thanks Soren... I'll do just that! I'll see just how difficult it might be to edit it on the server rather than drag it down and republish it.

Now if someone comes up with a way to reorder the menu items I"ll be golden!

Thanks again! Kip...

Are the menu items generated by the content tree ? If so you can reorder them right in the content tree.

Hi Kip,

It's also worth noting that Brett an I were recently involved in an interesting conversation about some alternative approaches to this problem: https://our.umbraco.org/forum/using-umbraco-and-getting-started/85729-how-to-add-anchor-links-to-dynamic-navigation
