Cannot drag web parts

Iron Contributor

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 and Chrome and it just doesn't seem to work. Is this by design or a fault?

 

Thanks, Laurie

Thank you for saving my life,@Hasan Köroğlu!

I am also facing the same problem that unable to drag and move webparts in Sharepoint Online Classic Experience. 

I remember that that was able to use before. I also tried to change the zone. but that function was grey out and unable to change zone. 

 

Is there any solution regarding with this problem?

Thanks 

That is the workaround I found and it worked for me on Edge.
Open the page, where the WebPart is located and select "edit page".
Edit the Webpart you want to move. i.e. Script Editor
Scroll down and expand "Layout".
Change the "Zone" such as from 1 to 2 and click "apply".
If you only see a single "Zone" - i.e. Main - and cannot change it, type the number 2 in the "Zone Index" field and click "apply".


@Hasan Köroğlu your advice helped me. Thank you.
