Sorting of sections/fields in blueprints

I’m having a problem with sorting/structuring a blueprint.

Why does this work:

columns:
  - width: 2/3
    fields:
      text:
        type: blocks
        label: Content
      short:
        type: textarea
        label: Kurzfassung für Übersicht

And this not:

columns:
  - width: 2/3
    fields:
      short:
        type: textarea
        label: Kurzfassung für Übersicht
      text:
        type: blocks
        label: Content

I’m a bit confused about the correct order of things and would appreciate a bit of help :slight_smile:

Hey, welcome to our forum.

You can order your fields like you want, what exactly doesn’t work? They both look the same to me apart from the order of the fields.

It’s a bit strange. :slight_smile:
When both fields were empty the second version above wouldn’t show the blocks field. But now I switched it back to the first version, filled in a block, filled out the textarea underneath. Now with the content filled in I changed the order in the blueprint and now it works. But I’m still confused :smiley:

Sounds a bit weird, will try and test when I get a chance.
