I find that I try to drag and drop lightposts, but all that happens is that I select the intervening text. Very frustrating. Weirdly, I seem to be able to drag sometimes when I go back and edit the mission, but not during initial creation. |

What part of the overlay are you clicking on? I was having a little difficulty myself earlier, but once I clicked and held on either the lightpost in the upper left-most corner of the overlay and/or the blue url string, I was able to move it without further difficulty after a few hard drags down. |

Yup, just grab the URL...to 'drop' the link, just move far to the right. You will 'drop' the Lightpost and all of its text w/o any problems. |

Grabbing the URL still doesn't work for me. I wind up having to delete everything and put the links back in the right order by hand. |

Same as you karmakaze, totally unable to reorganise the order of the lightposts. When I test the mission and go back, THEN I can move them around, odd - then I repost it. |

I've honestly never tried to do it during mission creation; I make my missions in a text editor, and then copy/paste everything in the correct order to begin with... I've always been able to drag/drop them during the editing portion of mission creation, after they've been 'finished' and tested, but before publishing.

Yeah, I do what you say too, pixie - I copy and paste the comments, but sometimes when I test the mission the lightposts go walkabout and I have to reorder. But as kamrmakaze has said, I too have had issues with reordering in already created missions. The comments etc just will not move at all, no matter where you grab them. |

Very odd! |

I was having the same problem with not being able to rearrange during mission creation, but I found that simply refreshing the page seemed to help. Any time I typed a description, or did just about anything else really, I refreshed, and was then able to rearrange to my heart's content. Hope that helps! |

Thanks zephyrjr, will try that tip when I am creting or editing my next mission. Ta much. |
