My question relates to the Forms Preview in Umbraco 7.2, so I apologize if this post is in the wrong place. Did not know where else to ask.
Our client needs a custom list of entries, in the backend, to appear on the node that the form belongs to - effectivly eliminating the need to go into the Forms section at all.
I wrote the datatype to do this with Contour 3, and everything seemed to work. But now, I face the problem that the fields in a record no longer have a SortOrder - so when I pass the entries to the datatype and try to list them, the ordering is semi-random (obviously due to how dictionaries work).
However - when looking at a form in the Forms section, the fields there are clearly sorted correctly. So, it is possible - but how?
Please point me in the right direction, so that I may once again sort all the things!
