Manually sorting To-Do tasks and turning off sort order

After experiencing the same frustrations mentioned here (what have they done to one of my favourite apps, Wunderlist?), I came up with a simple solution. Ignore ToDo's ready-made lists at the top of the sidebar and create your own using +New List - even with the same names if you wish - in the lower half of the sidebar. You can then organize items to your heart's content. I still think the fact you can't custom-organize lists as a standard feature sucks.
Michael_Ion Thanks for that very helpful tip - it works! I also just discovered that one can still mark something as Important and then right-click the task and move it to a different folder that I've created - e.g., Work Tasks - and the task is moveable in that folder Or I can create a task in the list I've created and then mark it important. In either case, the task shows up both in the Important folder and the folder I've created and I can rearrange it along with all other tasks in my created folder.
