Orderli adds an order input box to the links editing page. The order number lets you explicitly specify an order for the wp_list_bookmarks and get_bookmarks functions. Giving links an order number automatically overrides any sort order you provide with the orderby argument. The links are sorted in ascending or descending order depending on the order argument you provide.

On the other hand, giving links the same order number will apply whatever sort option you provided with orderby. For instance, leaving all links with an order number of zero will have no affect on ordering. This lets you create groups by giving sets of links the same order number. You can then sort within those groups with orderyby parameter.
