Sorting child pages as they are created

Question

I am newbie in Confluence and I want to know how how can we sort child pages in the side bar as they are created.

Child pages are now displaying in alphabetical order. I just created multiple child pages, like "January", "February", "March", "April".

It's displaying in the following order:

1. April
2. February
3. January
4. March

I want them in the following order:

1. January
2. February
3. March
4. April

You can sort child pages manually - see Changing the page order manually

Changing the page order manually

To change the order of pages in the space:

1. Go to a page in the space and choose Pages in the sidebar. For more options, choose Browse and reorder all pages. Or, if you are using the Documentation theme, choose Browse > Pages at the top of the screen.

2. Choose Browse and Reorder Pages (default theme only).

3. Expand the branches of the tree to find the page family you wish to sort.

4. Drag each page to a new position in the tree.

When you drag a page to a new position, the order of the page family changes to Manual. Newly added pages will not be sorted alphabetically, but will appear at the bottom of the list.
