1. Access Admin > Utilities > Config Variables

Access Admin > Utilities > Config Variables

Verify that your configuration parameter is set to allow modification

  1. To find the required variable, filter all variables by the keyword 'sort'.
  2. The DASHBOARD_ALLOW_SORTING_IN_CATEGORY variable must be set to 'Y'.

When a Category is originally created, the Sort Order set by field is automatically populated with the name of the Admin User creating the Category, but may be changed to any Admin User from the drop-down list. Only this User may modify the element order for this Category.

3. Access the 'Re-order elements' function

Access the 'Re-order elements' function

  2. Click the Re-order elements button next to the Filter Options
