Fragment position question

[TheInkDepot]

Hi all

I have a section with 4 sub sections, when I add a fragment to the main section it appears below the 4 sub sections but I want it at the top, if I drag the fragment up it simply puts itself inside the 1st sub section...it currenlty looks like this:

Section
1st sub section
2nd sub section
3rd sub section
4th sub section
Fragment (want this above 1st sub section)

so my question is how can I place the fragment above the 1st sub section?

Many thanks

Neil

On your example, drag it up the "section" section, not the 1st sub section.

If anyone else is trying to move the position of a fragment in a section which has sub sections you need to change a couple of settings in the main sections layout tab you cant 'drag' the fragment up!

While in the 'content tree' select the main section (which has the sub sections and fragment in it) Go to the 'Layou' tab and under the 'section' list of options change 'Bottom Sub Section Layout' to: Standard Sub Section List and change 'Top Sub Section List Layout' to: No Layout

Hope this helps ;-)

thanks for your reply Lee but dragging the fragment up to the main section always puts the fragment below any sub sections that may be there so you have to make the chages to the main sections layout as described in my previous post...seems a long way round of doing things but this is life with actinic after all

I'm sure mine worked differently, maybe because i have the needed layout selectors already in place as i had some problems in that area too.

Good find anyway, that will certainly help.

I've just tried doing this, but still not working...

I changed the main section :
Bottom Sub Section List Layout - is now "Standard Sub Section List"
Top Sub Section List Layout - is now "No Layout"

Could this have something to do with the fact I'm using a smart theme ?

I've tried dragging the fragment and creating a new one with no luck...

Hi Lyndsey

I have checked on Smart theme and it okay for me. Also what Neil and Lee has written should work, so it strange it not on your one. If you are still having problem with this, I would suggest in opening a ticket with Actinic Support

Kind Regards

this method gets overwritten when export/import hierarchical spreadsheet

Hi

I've used the method described in this thread to get my fragment to appear above products.. and yes it worked.

However, we are updating our products by exporting, amending and then importing a hierarchical spreadsheet. And despite NOT changing the Top Sub Section Layout and Bottom Sub Section Layout in the spreadsheet, the Top Sub Section Layout is reverting to the default, and any products in this/these sections are appearing both ABOVE and BELOW the fragment!!!!!!

Any ideas how to get around this in the spreadsheet when its exported to ensure when its re-imported it doesn't overwrite???

Help!

[leehack]

Set the default in site options to what you want it to be, shouldn't change then.

bumping this thread, as I have a similar issue.

I have a section with a product and a fragment in, the fragment always appears above the product, I need it the other way around... Have tried the top section and bottom section swap over with no joy, is this something to do with a product being in there?

[auztin100]

Hi, thanks for the reply.

My overall site option layout is -

Bottom Sub Section List Layout - No Layout
Top Sub Section List Layout - Standard Sub Section List

This applies to all the sections, apart from the ones I have mentioned, where I have swapped these 2 over.

Odd thing is everywhere on the site where a fragment is below sub sections, the fragment does show below the sub section links (images) but when the fragment is below a product, the fragment always appears above the product (no matter what I set the top/.bottom sub section list layouts too ...

[auztin100]

Odd, I have set the Top Sub Section List Layout to no Layout in site options (everything below uses "use parent")

and I have set Bottom Sub Section List Layout to Standard Sub Section List. (everything below uses "use parent")

Now every section that has sub-sections and a fragment at the bottom, show the fragment at the top before the sub-section links...

Seems back to front.

Here is the standard section page layout ...

Fragments and products are dealt with as the same thing, so simply drag and drop to get the order you want.

Thanks, but they are in the right order.
