## Ordering pages
To specify a page order, use the `nav_order` parameter in your pages' YAML front matter.

The specified `nav_order` parameters on a site should be all integers or all strings.
Pages without a `nav_order` parameter are ordered alphabetically by their `title`,
and appear after the explicitly-ordered pages at each level.
By default, all Capital letters are sorted before all lowercase letters;
adding `nav_sort: case_insensitive` in the configuration file ignores case
when sorting strings (but also sorts numbers lexicographically: `10` comes before `1`).
The parameter values determine the order of the top-level pages, and of child pages with the same parent. You can reuse the same parameter values (e.g., integers starting from 1) for the child pages of different parents.
The parameter values can be numbers (integers, floats) and/or strings. When you omit `nav_order` parameters, they default to the titles of the pages, which are ordered alphabetically. Pages with numerical `nav_order` parameters always come before those with strings or default `nav_order` parameters. If you want to make the page order independent of the page titles, you can set explicit `nav_order` parameters on all pages.
By default, all Capital letters come before all lowercase letters; you can add `nav_sort: case_insensitive` in the configuration file to ignore the case). Enclosing strings in quotation marks is optional.
> *Note for users of previous versions:* `nav_sort: case_insensitive` previously affected the ordering of numerical `nav_order` parameters: e.g., `10` came before `2`. Also, all pages with explicit `nav_order` parameters previously came before all pages with default parameters.
