We have a Base document type that includes the properties SubTitle and MainBody. We also have a Document Type called Article that has a property MainTitle.
When we edit/create a node of Type Article, the properties are listed in the following order:
SubTitle MainBody MainTitle
Which, basically is a bit of a confusing experience for the Editors. Is there any way of sorting inherited properties? What we're trying to achieve is:
MainTitle SubTitle MainBody
Any assistance/guidance would be greatly appreciated.
It looks like that pull request was closed by accident, although it still hasn't been updated since January last year.
Is there any way to achieve this (sorting inherited properties) yet without using additional packages?
Sort order of inherited properties
Hi all,
We have a Base document type that includes the properties SubTitle and MainBody. We also have a Document Type called Article that has a property MainTitle.
When we edit/create a node of Type Article, the properties are listed in the following order:
SubTitle
MainBody
MainTitle
Which, basically is a bit of a confusing experience for the Editors. Is there any way of sorting inherited properties? What we're trying to achieve is:
MainTitle
SubTitle
MainBody
Any assistance/guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Mmmmm, tumbleweed - that normally means it can't be done....?
Looks like this feature was developed and a pull request submitted. There was hickup and the request was closed. Should have been in the 6.1.4 branch.
Added code to display inherited properties when editing document types.
Maybe this package solves the problem? --> http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/doctypemixins
