Ordering Content Type entries in the List view

It would be really beneficial if there was a way to retain the order (using order column for example) of a collection and be able to update it via drag-and-drop on the collection view.
There are many cases when we want to have a certain order of items (regardless of insert order/id/filter/sort options provided in the view), and to be able to retrieve the data using the predefined order later (as seen in the collection view for example)
Using drag and drop would help as it's really tedious to go to a huge collection and pump the order column of each item (for a CMS user) or run a query on the database (for CMS power user)
most common use case, ordering an employee list on a company website (or add a new employee at a specific position)

This is real user need, please, large project may not need, but small project with small client really need this feature.
Martin Serdült
I thought this was a basic feature 😅

I'm back here 3 years later, I cannot believe this is not out of the box. It makes Strapi unusable with our clients because they have to be able to re-order list items. Darn it.

I tried this plugin:
and it works pretty well

Almost 5 years later and there is still no feature for this..
In general i like Strapi, but this is a no go.
My customer is requesting this feature, how do i tell him that this is not possible? Now i need to justify my choice of tech..
Please Strapi team, fix this.
Why are there features and solves on the roadmap which barely have 50 votes and this highly requested feature is not even on the roadmap?

We have found a way to solve it per view. For example, if you have a list of projects with a "Project" content type on a protfolio page you can create a single type "Projects" and there add a relation field with with Project. there you can determine the order. in some cases it makes sense but in others it just adds extra content types and relations to the database.

How is this? I am desperately need this. Please any solution on strapi v4?

1.5 years later and here I am asking the same thing.
Cinzia Nicoletti
Any update here? Is urgent and very relevant!
Would anyone with me like to work on this? Until this is resolved it limits me a lot in choosing Strapi in the future....

Cinzia Nicoletti: there is a plugin that allows for this https://market.strapi.io/plugins/@retikolo-drag-drop-content-types
still will not expect strapi to make this a core feture since there are some performance implication for huge datasets

Boegie19: Thank you so much it works, even it has some bug, there is a workaround: https://github.com/plantagoIT/strapi-drag-drop-content-type-plugin/issues/24

When I showed yesterday strapi to my mkt workmate the first thing she missed was ordering with drag and drop. It's mandatory for her to adopt one cms or another. Any plans to develop this?
