How to adjust the display order of single pages through the background settings?

Anqi CMS is an efficient content management system that provides flexible and powerful content management tools for website operators.In daily operations, the display order of single pages (such as "About Us", "Contact Information", "Service Introduction", etc.) directly affects the efficiency of users in obtaining website information and the overall browsing experience.Understand how to adjust the display order of these single pages on the AnQiCMS backend, which is a key step in optimizing the website structure and user workflow.

AnQiCMS provides an intuitive backend setting option, allowing you to easily control the display priority of a single page in the list.This feature is implemented through the "Display Order" field, and its core principle is that the smaller the number, the closer the page is to the front of the list.

Detailed steps to adjust the display order of a single page

You need to log in to the backend management interface first to adjust the display order of the single page in AnQiCMS.

In the left navigation menu of the background management interface, find and click the "Page Resources" module.This module is specifically used to manage the static page content and media resources of the website.After entering "Page Resources", you will see a sub-menu named "Page Management", click it to enter the single page management list.

In the "Page Management" list, it will display all the single pages created on your website.Here, you can browse, edit, or delete these pages.To modify the display order of a single page, you need to find the page and click the corresponding "Edit" button (usually located in the operation column), and enter the editing details page of the single page.

In the single-page editing detail page, you will see a series of configurable fields.Please scroll down the page to find a field labeled "Display Order".This field allows you to enter an integer value to set the priority of the page.AnQiCMS system defaults to the value 99 for the 'Display Order' field of a newly created single page.

Remember the rule that 'the smaller the number, the earlier it appears' when adjusting the display order.For example, if you want the "About Us" page to be at the top of all single pages, you can set its "Display Order" to a smaller number, such as "10";If you want the "Contact Information" page to follow next, you can set it to "20", and so on.By reasonably allocating these numbers, you can precisely control the relative position of the page in the list.

After modifying the value of "Display Order", please make sure to click the "OK" or "Save" button at the bottom of the page to ensure that your changes are recorded by the system.In some cases, you may also need to clear the system cache to make the front-end website immediately reflect these changes.In the AnQiCMS backend, you can usually find the 'Update Cache' feature in the 'Backend Home' or 'Settings' module.After executing, the display order of the front page should be synchronized.

After completing the above steps, it is recommended that you visit the website's front end to check if the single-page list has been displayed in the new order you set.It should be noted that the final display effect of the website's frontend also depends on how the website template calls and renders the single-page list.AnQiCMS template tags (such aspageList）The page data will be returned in the order configured on the backend, but if there is custom JavaScript sorting logic or other layout processing in the template, it may affect the final presentation.As long as the template has not been customized for additional sorting, the "display order" setting on the backend will take effect directly.

By following these steps, you can flexibly and efficiently manage the display order of single pages in AnQiCMS, thereby better meeting the operational needs and user experience optimization of the website.
