How to reorder navigation panel?

Dear XWiki users,
I needed to make a dynamic menu and I decided to do it through the navigation panel and put the order in the right way, I clicked save, but the order did not change, what could be the reason and how could I do it

I tried a bunch of ways, but in the standard tree macro, when I click on the link, the tree collapses (and it’s important for me to keep the structure)
Thank you in advance)

The order is automatic ATM (alphabetical order). You can re-order the tree nodes but the order is not saved. We need to implement Loading... .

And here we are, more than three years later, still not implemented…

I can understand your frustration but this is not helping… What have you done in 3 years to help out? :slight_smile:

Note that if you don’t have technical skills, you can help by sponsoring a feature.

If you’re curious, you can see what has been done in the past 3 years (5113 issues closed).

I didn’t say nothing was done, I pointed out that a half-developped feature (the UI allows item reordering) is not finished (the state is not saved): so yeah, both misleading and frustrating.

FTR it has been implemented in XWiki 16.4.0 (see Loading...).

Are you able to reorder sub-pages? I’m working on documentation under subheads and I don’t want them to be in alpha order.

Not from the Navigation Panel administration section (which targets mostly top level pages), but you can go to any parent page and pin the child pages from the Page Administration (in the latest version of XWiki this has been moved in the “Children” viewer that can be accessed from the page menu).

Great, thanks. That did the trick.
