In some categories, the stakeholders of a project would like to manually drag&drop topics to reorder them. Is there such a theme component or plugin that would allow for custom topic ordering?
That order would change right away when someone posts in a topic 
AFAIK there is no way to keep fixed order of topics.
I believe that is correct. Pinning is the closest you can come, probably.
I didn’t mean “temporary reordering”. I guess what I’m suggesting is a new topic ordering - “custom/manual ordering”, whatever you’d name it. Not by date, not by name, not by likes, popularity, or anything like that. But manual ordering. It would put new topics at the end or at the beginning by default (a new setting), but would allow to freely reorder them otherwise.

And that order doesn’t change when there is new posts? So there would be different listing in /latest that in category level? I would guess that would break the core function, in tech and idea level, so deeply that it won’t happend easily, if ever.
That sounds more WordPress style than how a discussion forum acts.
But closing all topics and playing with publishing times you can get that. But again, then a WordPress or some other CMS would be more logical choise.

Not sure what you are talking about sorry. It’s a simple “int manual_ordering” column in database and a new topic list view alongside /latest and /new.
Please don’t judge the needs of other forum users by absence of those needs in your usecases.
Discourse is being positioned far beyond just “discussion” classical forums. It is knowledge base, project management, effort coordination, chats, and god knows what else.
I’m just expressing a need that constantly arises in my communities.

저도 같은 필요를 느끼고 있으며, 현재 한계를 우회하기 위해 다음과 같이 처리하고 있습니다:
- 카테고리를 설정하여 생성 날짜 기준으로 정렬
- 각 주제의 날짜/시간을 원하는 순서가 되도록 변경
물론 이렇게 하려면 관리자만 가능하고, 날짜/시간이 다소 혼란스러워집니다. 따라서 이상적인 방법은 아닙니다!
확실히 가치 있는 기능 요청이 될 것 같습니다 (예: Contribute > Feature).

It seems the need is there and semi-recognized, at least for Documentation, as the topics appear manually sorted in the sidebar. I don’t see the manual sort on the topic list in the main section, but I’d like that option as well.

이 내용은 지원 요청보다는 기능 요청에 더 가깝다고 느껴져서 Contribute > Feature 채널로 옮겼습니다. 문서에 대해 주제 표시 및 정렬 방식을 다양하게 제공해야 한다는 점을 팀이 인지하고 있으며, 이러한 요구를 충족시키기 위한 계획이 진행 중입니다. 불행히도 공유할 수 있는 구체적인 일정은 아직 없습니다.
그동안 Discourse Doc Categories 를 보셨을 수 있는데, 이 기능은 사이드바에 목차를 생성할 수 있게 해줍니다. 우리는 Documentation 채널에서 이 기능을 사용하고 있습니다.
