Hi all, I have a repeater with lots of projects on my homepage. When I rearrange the order in the item manager…nothing happens at all. The projects appear in the same order (identical to the data collection). I can rearrange them, click safe, go to preview … when I go back, the items are in the old unchanged order. Is this a bug? Or am I missing something? Any hint is appreciated, Best, A.
Hi I’m Carmel from the Editor X team,
If your repeater is connected to a data collection, the order of the content in the repeater is the same as how you defined it in the data collection. If you reorder the repeater items in the editor, what you see in the editor will not be what you see in preview but rather just a placeholder. In preview you will always see the order you have defined for your data in your data collection.
I hope this helps and if not feel free to reach out.
Thanks,
Carmel
hi carmel, thank you for your answer! but can I change the order of the projects in the data collection easily? I mean in a easy drag & drop way? thank you
Hi, if you go to the dataset icon on the page in the editor, you can sorting and filtering. The items in the repeater will be sorted according to this sorting.
