I’d moored it outside, as ordered (6)

I believe the answer is:

tidied

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'ordered' is the definition.
(tidying is a kind of ordering)

'i'd moored it outside' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'i'd' could be 'id' and 'id' is located in the answer.
'it' could be 't' (abbreviation. e.g. in 'tis) and 't' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'as' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
