Issue Summary

is it possible to add weight to each fieldet so they can be listed in orderly fashion?

Comments

#1

Vertical Tabs now follows the same weight structure as the original fields in the form, so if you're using CCK you should be able to move around *some* of the fieldsets at admin/content/node-type/fields. Since CCK already has a mechanism for doing this, maybe we should improve CCK to control more weights?

well the attachment seems to float near the top when i added location, and i need location at the very top

Marking as won't fix, since it's not the responsibility of Vertical Tabs to make fieldsets reorderable. You should open an issue with CCK and location.module to make upload and location reorderable through the CCK interface.

If anyone else should have similar issues, I have found out that a quick fix for this is to temporarily disable javascript in your browser and manually edit the weights of the fieldsets.
This way I was able to push down the "author info" and "publication options" tabs that are not visible (then draggable) in the content type fields overview and always showed up at the top.
Generally the weights of fields/fieldsets are quite high (like 40s or 50s) so this should be often feasible.

Ingenuity is elegant common sense, thank you bohz, worked for me.

If you're using the latest CCK version the authoring info and publication options are now orderable too.
