Cannot drag web parts
Hi
Has anyone else noticed that it is currently not possible to move web parts with drag and drop. I have tested a web part page in Edit mode in multiple tenancies on different devices with IE ...
I've recently faced with this problem. My solution is so;
- Open the page in edit mode
- Edit the webpart which you want to move
- On the webpart properties section (which is on the top right of the page) Expand "Layout" section
- On Layout section, there is two option
- First one Zone selection. If you want to move the webpart to the different zone, select the desired zone
- The second one is Zone Index. Use this if you want to change the order of webpart. For example you have two or more webpart in one zone. So you could change the webpart order
Hasan Köroğlu thanks this worked.
I'm glad this worked for you all. But for me it's never worked and I thought this was a missing feature in SharePoint Online. Maybe it's how we migrated to SP online?
My company had a 2010 on premises site that we migrated to the online cloud using Sharegate. Since all the pages were originally created in 2010, I believe they were created in the cloud as classic pages. They all have layout pages with web parts. I am able to edit webparts and change the index number, but that is such a pain.
As the site is rather large, 100+ pages, is there any way to make this work without recreating all the pages to make sure they are modern pages?
