    I am using the Orvis theme. How do I change the order of the pages as they appear on the Menu List on each page of the website?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    By default, posts are designed to display in reverse chronological order (from newest to oldest). However, sometimes there are reasons why you might want to reverse that and display your posts in chronological order (from oldest to newest).

    Refer the below article for more details:

    Thanks.

    Hi there,

    Sorry I mistakenly told how to publish the post in order.

    You can change the order that your pages are displayed by using the Order field of the Page Attributes module.

    Let’s say you have three pages: About, Photos, Contact

    If you wanted About to appear first, you’d need to do the following:
    1.Go to Pages in your dashboard
    2.Find the page About and click the title.
    3.Locate the Page Attributes module to the right of the editor.
    4.Put the number 1 in the box for Order. This tells WordPress to display this page first on your site.
    5.Click the Update button.

    Repeat the process for your other pages, but use higher numbers for the Order field: 2, 3, etc. This tells WordPress to display these pages second and third on your blog.

    If you’re using the Pages Widget, be sure to set the Sort by option to Page Order after setting a custom order for your pages. Then click Save & Publish.

    For more details you can read this article:

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you but it is not the order of the pages that the website shows but the order of the pages that appears on the navigation menu on each page.

    The navigation menu shows the following pages:

    Further information
    Quotes about Casablanca
    Principal Cast Members
    Production Credits
    Plot Summary
    Image Gallery
    Associated Academic Writing
    Casablanca as a Historical Source
    Historical Context of Casablanca
    Presentation

    How do I change the order in which these headings are shown on the navigation menu shown on each page?
