Choose Auto or Manual sorting

Thanks for the updates. Is there a way to have a toggle option of how added events appear, auto and manual? It looks like added events will now automatically get sorted/moved down to when the date in it is set to. However, there are times when we would like added events to still appear at the top of the event list, so that we can quickly duplicate them for similar future events that will occur on different days. Now I would have to search or scroll down to find the latest added event, so I wonder if there can be some menu toggle button to allow the option of how newly added events appear.

Hi there, @Encore :wave:

Thank you so much for the feedback!

At the moment, unfortunately, manual sorting is not supported. However, I’ve moved your idea to the Wishlist and if it gets more votes, we’ll try to think about this opportunity :slightly_smiling_face:

I would also love to be able to see displayed as either for the same reasons mentioned above. I also have an intern that helps populate the calendar and when dates are listed as entered, I can see the work he has done instead of having him account for his work in another way. Deleting previous events is GREAT! I’ve been listing my events with the date typed in in front of the event so I could search for past dates and delete.

Allow to drag and drop events in the lineup so they appear where we’d like

Hi there, @user21234 and welcome to the Elfsight family :wave:

We already have a request for this feature, and I’ve moved your comment to the related discussion :slightly_smiling_face:

I used to be able to drag and drop the events up and down the list to arrange the order they displayed in on our website.

Those drag and drop features appear to have vanished. Is there another section that does this now?

Hi there, @user12443 :waving_hand:

Thank you so much for the feedback!

You’re right, currently the events are automatically sorted in the date order and the drag and drop option isn’t available now. I am really sorry for all the inconvenience caused!

We already have a request to restore the manual (drag and drop) sorting, and I’ve added your comment there too. If this request gains more votes, we’ll try to think it over in the future updates :slightly_smiling_face:

The idea isn’t bad. It is more about being able to manually sort all events on the same day so things appear in some logical order, like standard weekly events, then special one off events etc. that is why the manual sort was useful

Sounds reasonable, thanks for sharing!
