Drag And Drop Ordering

Change item numbers by dragging and dropping items into your preferred order.

The Drag And Drop Ordering function presents your current biddable items in a list that you can reorder by dragging items into the sequence you want. Item numbers are then assigned based on that order.

To open the dashboard, click Items (left sidebar, Details) Numbering.

Item Number Collisions

When renumbering items, the new number list takes precedence over any existing item numbers that were not included in the selection. Items with conflicting numbers will automatically be renumbered to the next available valid item number. There is no warning when this happens — review your selection carefully before saving.


Options

Set the starting item number and increment at the top of the page before finalizing your order.

Choosing Items

By default, the item list includes all current biddable items for your event. The selection is shown at the bottom of the page and updates dynamically as you apply filters.
