Can't Drag & Drop Categories
I just installed Vanilla using the softaculous software, and immediately noticed that I can't drag and drop my categories. It seems to work in the administration area, but when I view the forum on the frontend, nothing has changed. This is quite frustrating since I need to have my categories arranged alphabetically.
Any solutions?
Thanks!

I then tried it in Firefox and it worked fine, so I guess it is an IE issue.
Bummer.
There are other ways to arrange your categories alphabetically

The way I understand it now is that you can drag and drop the categories on the backend, but it doesn't save the new order in which you've dragged and dropped them. Is that correct?
Also, do you only want to sort your categories alphabetically? Because you can do that in other ways than dragging and dropping.

Funny, the right hand column that shows the categories is displaying the order properly. But the categories in the main body of the page are not, and that's the section I want to be alphabetical. I'm using version 2.0.17.10
In the meantime, I believe that the fix is a combination of a jquery update, and an update to the jquery sorting plugin we used.

1) Open applications/vanilla/categories.js
2) Go to line 29 and change $('[name=Form/DeleteDiscussions]') to $('[name="Form/DeleteDiscussions"]').
3) Repeat on line 40.
That should do it. The reason is that the / in the Form/DeleteDiscussions is considered a "special character" by jQuery, and must be enclosed in quotes to be properly read.
Hope that helps in the mean time!
Add Pages to Vanilla with the Basic Pages app
I'm using release 2.0.18.2 (http://community.paoc.org/discussions/) and I'm not able to drag and drop my categories. Wasn't this issue fixed a few releases ago? I've tested the issue in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari--all simply highlight the text when clicking and dragging instead of moving the actual category box. Any thoughts? Thanks.
