As a whole, the new WordPress Admin panel is organized fairly well, however when it comes to editing posts or pages quickly without having to open each post or page in a new tab or window, it isn't a very efficient process. For those who are using WordPress as a CMS, it's important to be able to manage contents easily and quickly. That's what this plugin helps to do.
It adds some icons to the posts/pages management panel with AJAX-driven CMS-known functions like toggling post/page visibility, changing publication date and title without having to open the edit screens or reload the page, plus changing page order with drag'n'drop, inline category management and inline tag management, plus much more.
- Ability to change post and page properties inline in the post or page management view
- Toggle visibility with a single click
- Quick Edit for Taxonomies (Categories, Tags, Custom Taxonomies, ...)
- Quick Edit for Custom Post Types (Title, Slug, Author, etc.)
- Stick & unstick posts with a single click from within the posts listing panel
- Change the publication date with a neat comfortable calendar
- Change post/page title inline in posts/pages management view
- Change post/page slug inline in posts/pages management view
- Change page order inline in pages management view
- Change order of (top level) pages via Drag'n'Drop
- Change categories inline on post management page (inline category management)
- Toggle comment status open/closed in posts/pages management view
- Change tags inline on post management page (inline tag management)
- Change media order inline in media management view
- Change media description inline in media management view
- Open post revisions inline in post/page management view
- Change post/page author inline in post/page management view
- Change link categories inline on link management page
- Toggle link visibility with a single click
- Time now can be chosen in the js popout calendar aswell
- Change post order inline in post management view (Props Jeff Cole
- Support for Exclude Pages plugin
- Entirely possible to be localized, including the JS calendar
- Two different button sets available
Notes on changing page order via Drag'n'Drop
Since Version 1.0 it is possible to change page order via drag'n'drop. Currently it's only possible to drag top level pages, that means only those pages with no parent pages. It is planned to make it possible for child pages, though.

As an admin, I’m not able to change the author of posts and pages in WordPress 3.2.1. Not sure what the reason is. Can you please help? This works in another site of mine (which run WP v3.2)

Are you having more than 1 author in your blog that’d be allowed to be a post author?
Yes, I have more than one author in my blog that can post a post author.
Can you send me an admin login so I can have a look at it myself? scripts (at) schloebe (dot) de
If I want to use data in the “Post Order” column for sorting Feature Slide ordering, where do I find the data in a table? What would the variable be to query?

Not sure what exactly you’re trying to do, but the post table row for dates is post_date.

Hallo, erstmal vielen Danke für das tolle Plugin.
Ich habe ein kleines Schönheitsproblem in einem meiner Themes bei Verwendung von Admin Management Xtended, das die Funktionalität ansonsten nicht berührt.
Unter “Kategorien” und “Schlagwörtern” taucht auch “ame_cat_actions” und “ame_tag_actions” auf.
Wie kann das sein? Eine Idee, wo ich am schnellsten nachgucken könnte? Ansonsten werden die Kategorien und die Schlagwörter aber korrekt angegeben und sind auch editierbar in der tabellarsichen Übersicht.
Ich habe es bewusst nicht als Bug gemeldet, da wohl nur ich dieses Problem habe. Stattdessen habe ich alle 5 Sterne bei wordpress.org gegeben.
Gruß
Jürgen
Hallo Jürgen,
sorry, ich verstehe nicht ganz, was du damit meinst.
Du meinst, dass die Backend-Actions “ame_cat_actions” und “ame_tag_actions” bei dir auch im Frontend auf den “Kategorie”- und “Schlagwörter”-Seiten auftauchen?

Hi Oliver.
I like to see the time, not just the date, for a post in the list.It would come in handy when You publishes more than one post a day and sets future date and time for publication.
It would be perfect because You can change both the date and time for publication of an post with Admin Management Xtended.
Thanks
Dan
Hi Oliver!
http://lecactus.ru/download/wordpress/plugins/admin-management-xtended-ru_RU.zip – this is updated (to version 2.2.4) RUSSIAN language pack.
Thanks Lecactus, added your localization to the repository!
Any plans to be able to edit the list of custom taxonomies as well as the standard categories and tags?

Fantastic plugin! a real boon!
Could you please add a feature to load more pages onto the admin page? I manage a large site with hundreds of pages, and it’s nearly impossible to do any meaningful admin with only 30 pages loaded.
Also, could you add a function to collapse child pages under the parents?
Cheers!
Hey Benny,
showing more than 30 pages per page is already in WordPress core. On the page listing page, click “Screen options” on the upper right.
For some reason, in the order direct input field, if I press “tab”, then it updates via AJAX, but if press “Enter”, it alerts “Error on saving page order”, then it disappears and updates correctly. Any idea what that is? Also, is drag-n-drop available for page-like custom post types?
Hello there,
great plugin THANX! I’ll give you 5 stars!
I have an off topic question, I like your admin pannel (saw it in the video) with the tabs on top, which plug-in is that?
Thanx a lot
V.
Hey valentina, that’s not a plugin, that is how WordPress 2.5 looked like when I made the video some years back.
Pingback: 'Plugins' Essentiels pour WordPress | Kwik-Web
this plugin is very good. thanks for create and share
Very cool Plugin. Only downside i could find: the url-params are somewhat too long for older browsers (i have a client who’s forced to use FF 3.x, yeah i know) who cannot handle such long urls. is that something than can be fixed (e.g. can those params be send as POST-data?)
i have put an example of the params here: http://jsfiddle.net/michapixel/UgD4w/
Can you name a particular example? I’m using WordPress’ standard AJAX interface (SACK) so using GET seems to be the only option available with that framework as far as I can see.
the only way i know – this is more a guess – http://technosailor.com/2012/02/08/tutorial-using-wordpress-ajax-api/
Heh, no, I was meaning an example in the WP admin area where my plugin is sending an AJAX request whose url is too long to handle for older browsers. Just trying to reproduce the issue.
http://jsfiddle.net/michapixel/UgD4w/ this is the url bloated by get-params. it’s a result of a search within “manage”
So you don’t mean AJAX urls are being too long, but the URL when searching posts in the admin area? I doubt I can change much about it as this is a default WordPress feature. I can, however, try to get rid of the GET params that are being caused by my plugin.
A quick option would be to open the “Screen options” panel (top right of the screen) and decrease “Show on screen” to display less posts per page.
Version 2.3.1 should be fixing the issue.
@Oliver: very cool, thanks in advance.
Are you able to manipulate the /categories/ and /tags/??
you mean the permalinks?
You mean the category and tag base? You can change these in the settings.
Hi,
I tried the direct input post order, so I key in the order number, but it doesn’t appear to have any effect on the post order at all
for example in this link http://www.suttavinaya.com/category/advanced/nikaya-album/
If it ordered correctly it should display like this;
Contents
Album Introduction
Disc 1 Anguttara Nikaya
…2,3,4…
…
Disc 9 Khuddaka Nikaya
Refrences
But as you can see, its all jumbled up.
What has gone wrong?
Fyi, I tried this with twentyelenen theme as well and its still not working
Thanks & regards
Hey Eric,
in order to make post order work you’ll have to edit your Loop a little bit. Altering the orderby parameter to ‘menu_order’ in query_posts() should do the trick: http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Order_.26_Orderby_Parameters
Which file do i have to edit?
Usually your theme’s index.php file.
here is the index.php sourcecode, but there is no query_post
———————————————————————————————-
max_num_pages; if ( $total_pages > 1 ) { ?>
<?php next_posts_link(__( '« older articles’, ‘clean’ )) ?>
<?php previous_posts_link(__( 'newer articles »’, ‘clean’ )) ?>
<div id="post-” >
<a href="” title=”" rel=”bookmark”>
<a class="url fn n" href="” title=”display_name ); ?>”>
|
<abbr class="published" title="”>
<?php edit_post_link( __( 'Edit', 'clean' ), " | \n\t\t\t\t\t\t”, “\n\t\t\t\t\t” ) ?>
<?php the_content( __( 'continue reading »’, ‘clean’ ) ); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages('before=’ . __( ‘Pages:’, ‘clean’ ) . ‘&after=’) ?>
|
<?php the_tags( '’ . __(‘Tagged ‘, ‘clean’ ) . ”, “, “, “\n\t\t\t\t\t\t | \n” ) ?>
<?php edit_post_link( __( 'Edit', 'clean' ), " | \n\t\t\t\t\t\t”, “\n\t\t\t\t\t\n” ) ?>
max_num_pages; if ( $total_pages > 1 ) { ?>
<?php next_posts_link(__( '« older articles’, ‘clean’ )) ?>
<?php previous_posts_link(__( 'newer articles »’, ‘clean’ )) ?>
Sorry it seems the code gets altered if i post it here
but here is the link to the source code of index.php;
http://www.suttavinaya.com/tmp/sc.txt
Try this: http://pastebin.com/NqwFpiXu
Thank you, for being so helpful. Unfortunately, that didn’t make a difference, the posts still would not order.

I have a field in the admin for the “type” of post. I really need to be able to update this inline as I have a site that Im updating to use custom post types. How can I add that functionality?
In the video, the admin panel displays posts, categories, tags and more in a tabbed view. How do I configure my admin panel the same way? I only see Pages or Posts in a single view in my panel.
Does your plugin manage categories and tags? The standard view has no sort option, as one example. I’d love to see your plugin extended to the actualy tags & categories admin panel.
Thanks for a great plugin!
Zena
The video has been shot with WordPress 2.5 or so. Quite old.
OK; it’s an older version. Thank you.
Is there any way to add your plugin features to the standard WP admin panel view for categories and tags. I have many that need better management than the standard panel provides.
You could ask the WordPress people for inclusion! Other than that, just install the plugin to have the improved management options in your installs.
Hello,
Thank you very much for this great work.
This plugin is very good.
When it will be possible to order Posts like pages, with drag and drop, I will vote with 6 stars!
Hi , I just wanted to say thanks for the plugin. It came in very useful recently, when I had to change the postdate on a large number of posts.
It would be great if some of these features came as standard.
Anyway thanks again.
Cheers
I love your plugin! I’d love to see the ability to add tags to media without having to open each image.
You can’t add tags to media with standard WordPress. Are you talking about a plugin?
Great plugin! I’d like to bulk edit the date of publication of posts. For example, I want me to have 50 posts on one date and time of publication. Possible to implement it?
Hi there! Someone in my Facebook group shared this website with us so I came to give it a look. I’m definitely enjoying the information. I’m book-marking and will be tweeting this to my followers! Wonderful blog and superb design.
Hey Oliver,
I’ve been using AMX for a while now and although I used to find it really useful, the rather degraded support for CPT makes it a bit tricky to use nowadays.
The feature I get asked the most by the clients is drag&drop functionality for CPT with capability_type set to ‘page’. Is it a complex update?
Another thing is with CPT support for Categories or Tags. When these two are enabled, AMX overrides corresponding columns containing incorrect links, e.g.:
instead of http://site.com/wp-admin/edit.php?category_name=general&post_type=cpt_name it links to http://site.com/wp-admin/edit.php?category_name=general
You think it’s fixable at some not too distant future?
Just wondering why the plugin changes all the post authors to guest-user when they are already marked with their respective author? Is there a way to leave the original author name as it is instead of having to reset them all again? Thanks.

I drop a comment each time I appreciate a post on a website or I have something to valuable to contribute to the discussion. It is caused by the fire communicated in the post I browsed. And on this post %BLOG_TITLE%. I was actually moved enough to drop a comment
I do have a few questions for you if you usually do not mind. Could it be simply me or do a few of the comments appear like they are left by brain dead people? 
And, if you are writing at other social sites, I would like to follow everything fresh you have to post. Could you list all of all your shared pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?|
How do I turn off Drag and Drop. After I turned it on the buttons disappeared. Thanks for your help.
This is one of the best wordpress plugins out there. It should be standard on wordpress! Thanks for making it.
This is a very nice guide and I think much more in detail than many of the posts elasewhere
Very informative post. Thanks for taking the time to share your view with us
Im looking for a plugin to bulk edit POST CONTENT instead of anything else. Any ideas? Any plans to add POST CONTENT edit function to Your plugin?
please advice.

We got a similar problem to that one of Mendel above. WordPress 3.5.1 german, all other plugins disabled. Admin Management Xtended 2.3.8. When trying to save the new post order, a message appears: “Ajax error on saving page order”. But, unlike Mendel, nothing is changed after the wheel spinned for some seconds. Could it be due to the fact we got the same order numbers several times? Need login for check?
