Hi, I'm not sure if this is the same problem, but what I did is to use a Mixin like this: djangosnippets.org/snippets/259/ then, in a custom change_list.html template I used JQuery sortable to drag and drop items, when an item is dropped to the new position, an ajax call in the background calls a custom view that saves the new order (the method is just one: insert_at called with the new position as argument). -- Alessandro Pasotti w3: www.itopen.it -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
