The story

The pain

We've been waiting for years for a simple drag-and-drop content sorting feature, but Strapi still forces us to use a number field to order items. The current drag-and-drop implementation is broken — items don't move where we expect, and we waste hours trying to get them in the right place. This is a basic usability requirement that our clients expect, and its absence makes Strapi hard to recommend for real-world projects.

You still can't drag and drop sort content?? After all these years? A whole new version launched? We can't expect clients to sort content via a number field.

Drag and Drop is a nightmare — most of the time it doesn't work as expected. You spend hours just trying to drag items to the right place. You drag one item and another one comes along.
