Sorting in the Panel creates duplicate sorting numbers

Kirby 2 Solved ✅
1

Hi guys,

the following is happening:
I have a website where in one place there are around 70+ subpages.
When trying to arrange one particular page in the edit-pages panel I suddenly found in the panel the order of

  • 40
  • 43
  • 41
  • 42
  • 44
  • 45

Looking into the content folder, I found the following directories:

  • 40-title…
  • 40-title2…
  • 41-title3…
  • 42-title4…
  • 42-title5…
  • 43-title6…
  • 44-title7…
  • 45-title8…

Needless to say, the output is just as crooked.
Does anyone have a clue as when or why this would happen and how to overcome this?
I’d really like to get to the bottom of this…

Tom

Am I understand you correctly: Your problem is that the order count starts with 40 instead of 1, right?

3

no, 40. is fine. but afterwards should come 41. not 43.

4

Have you changed anything, like changed the sort order method from date to number or anything like that?

What Kirby version, 2.1.1 or the 2.2.2 beta?

5

nope, haven’t changed anything in the sorting order within kirby. And its 2.1.1

6

Have you tried to replicate this in a new install? If it persists, I suggest creating an issue on GitHub.

fact is, this isn’t the first time. it already happened to me on a local mamp system several times. but being local I never put too much thought into it, as there are a couple of Mac OS issues at the same time happing which I haven’t had the time to tackle. However, this had never happened on a server so far. So this is different - all the more so as it happened to a client on a server.

I have never come across this issue but then again I have never created that many subpages sorted by number, so as I said above, could you create an issue over on GitHub?

Does this only happen with more than a certain number of pages or regardless of it?

9

Sry, was a few days on the move. Yes, I will create an issue on GitHub.
I experienced this happening usually when coming to more than 20 subpages.

I’ve moved the issue from the getkirby.com repo (which is the website) to the panel repo.
