ReOrder Assets Doesn't Work

[prince233]

Hi All,

We are using AEM 6.4.8. For the Assets(http://localhost:4502/assets.html/content/dam), the "reordering" of the assets is not working in List View. This behavior is not experienced in Pages(sites.html). 

Is anyone experiencing this issue? Let me know If anyone have similar Issue or anyone have any solution.

Thanks,

Prince.

Yes it does.

It matters what the underlying folder type is.

If it's sling:orderedFolder, you can reorder it.

If it's sling:folder, you cannot.

It's not working for both Assets folder and Individual assets also

I find that I am able to reorder a sling:orderedFolder in the classic UI, but not in Touch UI. This is a hard requirement for some of our users, (either that or alpha sorting in card view!) so looking forward to a solution!

The handles (highlighted in red) will only let you reorder if the underlying folder is of type sling:OrderedFolder.  

Folders can be 

- sling:folder

- nt:folder

- sling:OrderedFolder

two of those three won't re-order. 

much of /content/dam is sling:folders fyi -- so not reorderable 

Open a Daycare ticket if you want to pursue this further.
