Custom order collections issue (and possible fix)

Just thought I’d add this on here for anyone having the issue I’ve just been having. I have some collections with custom orders (think Marvel, Star Wars etc. that have chronological orders outside of releases) and my custom orders have not been saving once I leave the page. It appears that if you try and drag an item from the right hand side of the list towards the left, the changes will not save. However, dragging items from the left further to the right in the collection order seems to fix this. I know this is a dumb little thing, but I tried to re-order items literally about 20 times over before trying to reorder them in the opposite direction, so maybe it’ll save someone the silliest of small headaches.

That’s odd. It works fine for me. What browser and desktop OS are you trying this from?

Chrome, Windows 10. So to be specific as an example, all my Star Wars shows were laid out in alphabetical order (but with collection order set to custom), which goes Bad Batch - Mandalorian - SW Rebels - SW Resistance - SW The Clone Wars. Dragging Clone Wars and Rebels BACK to their respective places on the time line did not work. However, moving Bad Batch to the end, then moving Rebels, Mando and Resistance back behind it DID save the proper order. Very weird, but I tried it with a couple other multi show collections to get them in proper chronological order (Marvel and Dragon Ball, specifically) and this is the only thing that worked.
