When you follow the link 'order' from the admin right hand side menu, you will first see a page listing all categories and subcategories. This list contains the Id, icon, author, category heading, items, move and order columns.
The Order column
This column shows a selectbox with numeric values. The main parents have their own count, and the subcategories within a main parent also have their unique count. The maximum number visible in the selectbox list should reflect this. you can manually select a certain order number for all main categories and subcategories by selecting it from the selectbox. At the bottom of the list you will see the 'update order' button, which allows you to store the order setup you have just entered.
The Move column
The move column shows either one or two arrow images, one for up and one for down. By clicking on one of these icons the category order number will either increase or decrease. This process will immediately update the order. There is no need to press the 'update order' button after you have set the order using the up and down arrow images.
The Items column
For the main parent categories it will show two icons (as long as that main parent contain content items in it). The subcategories will only have one icon present.
By clicking the icon that all categories have (the window image without the yellow star) you will be able to manage the order of content items in that specific category.
By clicking the icon that is unique for main parent categories (the window image with the yellow star) you will be able to manage the global order of content items regardless of category.
In both case you will be presented with a similar page. This page has the same style 'order' and 'move' columns as explained above. There you can set the order of items using the selectbox and pressing the 'update' button, or use the up and down arrows to immediately change the order.
