↪ Drag & Drop to Reorder RG - New Plugin from Zeroqode

Hello @estudio315

Thank you for reaching out.

Unfortunately, currently, the plugin is optimized to work on the old responsive engine and has not been updated to work on the new responsive engine, therefore some of the features might not work well on the updated Bubble’s engine. We are still awaiting a New plugin editor from Bubble that is compatible with the New responsive engine, and as soon as it is released, our team will start optimizing plugins for the New responsive :slightly_smiling_face:

You can find more information regarding Bubble’s Plugin Editor & New Responsive Engine: Plugin Editor & New Responsive Engine [beta]
Zeroqode’s announcement regarding new responsive engine: New Responsive Engine for Plugins Announcement

Hope for your understanding on this matter.

Dang… the Sorting Mode does not work on Mobile. :pensive:

I just bought this plugin last night, got it to work on desktop and it looks and works great… however, on Mobile there is a big bug. As soon as you touch an item on mobile it immediately drops to the bottom of the Repeating Group and it can’t be moved. This error also occurs on your Demopage on mobile so I know it’s not on my side.

Is there a fix or work-around I can do?

Thanks,
Jude

Hi guys,

Awesome plugin. I would love to add this to my app.

After testing I found a few bugs on mobile which prevents the elements from being dragged up, also when dragging it down it skips. The functionality does not work as intended on mobile.

Im using iPhone by the way.

Thank you for all your work. Would love to purchase asap. Looking forward to a solution.

Hi @shwabbie & @mycardpage, thanks for your messages and sorry for the inconveniences met during our plugin usage :pray:

Currently, the developer team is working on the solution for the mobile view. If any news in this regard will appear, we will let you know asap.

Thank you for understanding!

Any progress on this?
I saw an update yesterday on the Sorting Mode where now on mobile it does not immediately jump to the bottom of the list! However, it still does not move or save when you drag it to another location.
Thanks,
Jude

Hi @shwabbie, thanks for your message.

Unfortunately, there are no preliminary investigation results available. The developer team is still looking for a solution to the reported issue.
Once any news will become available, we will let you know asap

Thank you for understanding :pray:

If it adds any clarity… I’m using a Samsung S9 running Android and I was finally able to get some of the items to move when sorting.
The trick is finding the exact spot to click to move the item. It seems if I grab just below or just above the box it allows me to move the items. However, I can’t find a consistent enough spot that allows it to be repeatable.
🤦🤷‍♂️

Not working in nested RG‘s

Well, why would it, eh?

I have a trello board style you need to drag to reorder the status

Inside you habe the tasks and i want the people to have the ability to sort by drag (also i wanted to drag between rg column but i newd the bubble drop area for this this is ok

But the sorting does not work for task inside the trello status / only for the first rg

Hi @shwabbie & @buero, thanks for your messages.

It is quite unknown issue for the library used by the plugin, so the developer team is continuing the investigation.

Once there will be any progress, we will let you know.

Hi @shwabbie & @mycardpage, thanks for your patience.

We have pushed a plugin update, that has fixed the issue related to the swap of elements on mobile devices.

To check changes, please upgrade your plugin to the latest version (Version 1.4.0: restored work on mobile devices) and give it a try.

If there will be any other questions that we can help with, please let us know.

Fantastic!
The only thing needed to make this plugin perfect would be a way to save the sort without refreshing. Right now, after you drag and drop an element, it goes back to it’s original position and then refreshes in the new position. This happens in just a second or two but it is just weird on the eyes. :joy:
Great work on the plugin and great response time on getting it fixed!
Thanks!

@shwabbie, unfortunately, it was found out that an additional investigation is required, to check how the Bubble RG element is displaying the cells (it might be an issue with the cell sizes, so a bug report to Bubble would be required).
Once any news in this regard will become available, we will let you know asap

The developer team will check this moment too :slightly_smiling_face:

Thank you for understanding.

Awesome work. I will test it out and give it a try.

Hello @ZeroqodeSupport .

First of all, great work on the app. This is exactly what I was looking for. However, I do need a little bit of help.

Edit: I found a more precise way to articulate what I’m trying to accomplish.

I have a repeating group of a list of things called “Video Ads”. Each video ad has its own Index which is a number.

What I want to happen is that when a video ad is moved to another position, it swaps its Index number with the index number of the video ad in that position, thus changing their orders in the list.

Is this possible with your plugin?

Thank you


Take a look at the swap option on the plugin.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I have that enabled. It doesnt do anything. It swaps the items, but once the page is reset, everything returns to their original order, which is what I dont want.

I have not tested myself to see if the bugs have been fixed but in order to save the order you need to follow the steps in this workflow. Make sure you have a field that is of type number in your DB that it will use to set the order or swap the order.

Ultimately if your not able to figure it out I suggest you either share your current app or recreate a basic version on a separate app and share it so that zeroqode can see where you are going wrong.

Your guidance was helpful.

I managed to get it work. It’s a bit janky, but it performs the task of sorting my grid and saving that order in the database.

I can work on cleaning it up.

I guess the thing was that their grid layout for sorting doesnt really seem to have any workflows behind it, so I was trying to imitate that, because its closer to what I’m trying to do, but was hitting a wall.

But the workflow for the other elements seems to have helped.

Thank you very much.
