Ordering fields in pages backend -cmsms2

Hi all,

Is there a way to order inputfields on a page in the backend?

When i make, let's say 4, fields in a template and assign them to a variable the ordering is correct. Later, when i put a 5th field between for example field 1 and 2 the ordering of the fields is not as expected.

It's not always a big problem but if i want to show an ECB2 textblock with explaination about the page it is preferably at the top of the page and not between some other elements.

I already tried to start fieldsnames with numbers and some alfabetical order but that doesn't help.

Thanx!

There's a priority parameter for content blocks you can use for ordering ... not sure whether ECB respects it but you can give it a go.

Code: Select all

(optional) priority (integer) - Allows specifying an integer priority for the block within the tab.

Hi,

Great, this already helps a lot!
ECB2 and JMFilepicker don't respect the priority parameter.

Thanx :-)
