Manual Sorting in a View

manual sort button

If a view has been sorted by a specific field, ideas cannot be reordered in the view. To enable reordering:

  • Turn off the current sort, or

  • Select Enable Manual Sorting

Doing either of these removes the active sort and returns the list to its previous manually sorted order.

override manual sort button

Opening the drop-down gives you two manual sort options:

  • Enable Manual Sorting - removes the active sort and returns the list to its previous manually sorted order.

  • Override Manual Sorting - keeps items in their current sorted position, but enables manual sorting. This becomes the new default sort for the view.

Archiving a View
