"Home" Link somewhere in the middle of the menu

25 Oct 2018, 16:44

Hi,
I have noticed, that my "Home" Link isn't placed on the first place in the menu.
Instead, the order is: "Galerie", "Impressum", "Home", "Kontakt"...

Within the Page-Setup, the "Home" is on the first place:

Is there somewhere an option, where I could have changed the order and haven't recognized this?

Thanks and with best regards,
Christoph

I can't say for sure why this happens, since it looks correct in the panel menu, but the "index" page will act like any other page and you may need to sort it into order after creating pages. Try dragging the index down a few levels, and then dragging it up to top again.

I've tried to change the order several times, but the menue still keep the order it has on the website, and also I've tried different menu "styles" and also the settings in "menu processing" - in the hope it would change something.

But unfortunately, it does not matter in which way I change the order of the pages in the panel - the order on the website does not change at all.

Hi, I just recognized, that even the order of my subfolders which I have created within "Galery" are not changing their order when I move them up/down in the panel.
I have also checked the folder.json - and it looked correct from the given index numbers there...
I've done some reorders within the file - so that the index numbers are within the correct order from top to bottom, but even this didn't change anything.
Code
{
    "index": {
        "url": "index",
        "index": 1
    },
    "Galerie": {
        "url": "Galerie",
        "index": 2
    },
    "Galerie\/Peopleandprojects": {
        "url": "Galerie\/Peopleandprojects",
        "index": 1
    },
    "Galerie\/Animals": {
        "url": "Galerie\/Animals",
        "index": 2
    },

    "Galerie\/others": {

        "index": 5    
    },
    "Kontakt": {
        "url": "Kontakt",
        "index": 3
    },

Are you using Settings > Advanced > "Simple Menu"?

That is the only option that would prevent your menu from inheriting your custom order. It would be a logical explanation.

no. All settings in that section are disabled - at least, I can't see any checkbox checked in the panel.
will this setting be reflected in any file?
Then I could check the file itself - to see, if this would show anything strange atm

Not sure what you mean. If the checkbox is NOT checked, then there is no point in trying to check the setting in your /config/config.user.json settings file.

If I am to diagnose why drag and drop isn't working, I will need login to your panel.

In Settings > Page > Folders > Sort folders by, you have set to "name" instead of the default "custom". Keep in mind, you have here changed the DEFAULT for all pages, including root-level pages. This setting you would normally only edit on a per-page basis. If you are changing the default, you would need to understand it affects all pages. Only "custom" allows custom sort, else "index" will display in the sort order you have set to "name".

:) thanks.
It seems that I am just getting confused with having those settings on different levels... :-(
