Hello all, Things have been going along great so far thanks to all of your wonderful advice.
I have a question a client using the cms has a list of all there staff, coaches, dancers, players ect... how can they inside the cms list view, sort them? They want for example the head coach to be at the top. I don't see the arrows so they can drag and drop them in any order. Is this possible?

Thanks
Chris

There's a few different ways to do this. You can created a field called 'sortOrder' and sort by that.

Another way is to have a checkbox for 'featured' and sort by that followed by 'title' (or 'name', etc) and that will sort 'featured' articles or players to the top of the list.

Would either of those methods work for you?
