Possible to drag and drop to reorder nodes?

Created on 19 January 2017, almost 8 years ago

Is there a way to reorder nodes, either with just this module or an add-on module? I created a custom content type and added a weight field via this module and created a view of it that sorts by weight. Now I just need a more efficient way to reorder other than editing each node individually and changing the weights, is there a way to do that? Thank you!!

    It sounds like i should be able to get a draggable widget from this field on to a view listing my custom entities. I have tried a couple things:

    1. i added a coded field to my entity with the code from comment #8 here: #2887710: weight_selector field missing for custom entity type β†’ . In views i then can place the Form Field field to get an integer selector or the basic Weight field which simply displays the integer value.

    2. I added a Weight field via the std add Fields UI, but i get this error: There was a problem creating field Weight: The "checkbox" plugin does not exist.

    It sounds like there is supposed to be a field_{fieldname}_selector field to add in Views, this does not exist.

    this is all in ver 3.4.0

    got it.. even though option 2 (adding field through UI) failed due to checkbox plugin missing; the field was added.. and does work in my view. :)
