Additional information
2023-10-01 video showing issue, last year around that date I noticed the problems and as it’s showed in the video: if opening the app quickly I could rearrange the headings, just momentarily as it stopped working briefly.
As a workaround I have been using Kanban community plugin functions but it’s not nearly as useful. Please warn in the official documentation that this outline rearrange function is just working, apparently, on iOS. Or maybe it’s just my phone? The function used to work relatively well before.
In the process of fixing this, if it’s planned at least, all this other issues can be fixed (if possible), making outline core plugin even better:
- Mobile App Outline Cannot Move Header (duplicate of current post )
- Allow Folded Headers to Remain Folded When Repositioning in Outline (close this if indeed was solved)
- Outline “Snap To” Location in Note
- toggle-to-disable-drag-drop-in-outline-plugin
- Outline Plugin: Auto-Scroll
