Drag and drop sort list items

[Bert Vandenbogaerde]

Is there a way to sort the list items like this example:
http://jqueryui.com/sortable/#default

Important is that it saves the order to the database.
I have a column in my database collection called "sorting".
I now work with the request parameter "sort".
It reads the values (1,2,3,etc) from the database and puts it in the right order.

I want to create my app so that the user can define his own sort order (like the example http://jqueryui.com/sortable/#default , a simple drag and drop made for touch screen)

Hi Bert,

Yes, you can do this within Appery.io. Let us know if you have any specific question.

Hello Katya

What is the best approach to start from?
Javascript or something else?
Is there a tutorial on that somewhere?

Thank You.

i am currently working with this question which was answered by Max.

I follow the steps but it does not work, probably because things have changed the past year.

can you help me figure it out?

[Kateryna Grynko]

Bert,

You would need some custom JS code to implement this.

Sure. Please share your application with a href="mailto:support@appery.io" rel="nofollow"support@appery.io/a and tell us where to see this.

I shared it now.
it can be found under pages- TESTvolgordewijzigen
The javascript event is placed under "list" component when clicked

We'll take a look and update.

Bert,

Add http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/jque... in External sources or as custom JavaScript.

hello

i added the code as external source but it does not help for the moment.

Any other ideas?
