I am using Merchello in my Umbraco 7 site, and have a need to drag and drop order of Products within Collections, I have added an Order Code to the Product Extended data, but the manager of the shop would prefer to drag and drop to order Products similar to the Content sorting. Has anyone done this before and can assist or point me in the right direction please.
I had a similar use case at one point for a client, and based on how long I figured to add in drag/drop functionality they opted for the simpler way of adding a custom order field per product, showing this in this listing and allowing users to alter this.
Obviously depending on the number of products this may not be feasible, though it's a quick and easy solution in most cases. Drag/drop can be added to the UI, but it's been a few years since I last looked into it and wouldn't be much help with that approach.
Thanks for the response, guess I will need to figure out how to add the Order code to the product listing and allow for updating at the moment you have to go through to the Product Extended Content to update it.
