Specbee Blog Shows How to Sort Node Data in Drupal with Entity Queue Module

Staff Reporter

Specbee’s latest blog post tackles a frequent challenge in Drupal development: sorting node data in a custom order. Titled “Sorting Node Data Using the Entity Queue Module in Drupal,” the post introduces the Entity Queue module as a practical tool for site builders who need more control over content arrangement.

Drupal’s default sorting methods—by date, title, or taxonomy—can be limiting. The Entity Queue module solves this by allowing users to manually order nodes such as blogs, events, or featured items through a drag-and-drop interface.

The blog walks through installing the module, creating queues, adding nodes, and displaying them in custom order using Views. It also covers advanced features like sub-queues for organizing different categories of content.

This post offers a clear, hands-on solution for anyone looking to fine-tune how node data is displayed in Drupal.
