Menu Ordering

Ordering does not depend on the Heartbeat API.

Do you have any other post ordering plugins installed?

No other post ordering plugin. Only Yoast that modifies the wp-list-table.

i’m using two testimonial categories. not sure if that is causing any problems. i can order manually with quick edit. if i drag and drop, it does a weird sort where order will be {1,40,2,41,3,42,…,39,80}.

I found no problem with multiple categories or Yoast fields. I suspect a conflict with another plugin. To test that, you can either:

* Deactivate other plugins and reactivate them one by one, testing the drag-n-drop reorder every time. I can devise a solution once we identify a conflict.

* Or install this version of Strong Testimonials which has a quick fix for one potential source of the conflict. If this works, then I will add it to the next plugin update.

The update didn’t work. Disabling all plugins didn’t work either.

I was able to determine more details about how to recreate the problem:

If I click to the 2nd page of the testimonials, reorder two items to the top of the page, and click to the 1st page of the testimonials, the two items I reordered to the top of the 2nd page will be moved to the 1st and 3rd position on the 1st page.

the work-around would be to disable drag-and-drop or set the number of testimonials to load all on one page, though it gets very slow on my system when i display all the testimonials. i also have other people working on it and would hate for the ordering to get messed up.

Thanks for the extra details. You discovered a bug related to pagination. I will fix it in the next update.

thank you.
