Entropy S is not only a function of temperature T, S=f(T). Clausious definition is differential: dS=dQ/T, it's not always easy to integrate this. Keeping Tstable, if you extract an amount of heat dQ from the system, you increase the order of the molecules. Example: Freezing liquid water to ice at 0 oC. If you induct an amount dQ in the system, then you increase the disorder of the molecules. Example: Boiling water at 100 oC. Molecules transit from a more "ordered" state (liquid) to a less "ordered" state (gas). The entropyconcept is aligned with math probability theory.
