I want to be able to re-order nodes within a given taxonomy using Draggable Views, specifically for the teaser view.

This is the setup I have:
Views overrides the default taxonomy/term page
It uses the unformatted style
There are no fields selected because unformatted doesn't use fields.

If I change the style to draggable table etc then it stops displaying the information formatted as a teaser. Could I create a different view with a taxonomy filter on it or something, displayed as a table essentially for admins to sort the order and then have the original view use this to sort? If so, how do I go about that?

Yes, that's possible with various approaches.
The easiest way:

  1. Go into the taxonomy_term view.
  2. Add a new page display.
  3. Click the style plugin ("unformatted" by default) and click the button "Override" before you choose the "Draggable Table" style plugin.
  4. Configure the Draggable Tabe style plugin following the documentation. You must use the Native handler - so the order will be the same for all displays of this view.
  5. Don't forget choosing "Use arguments as well as view ID to order nodes."
  6. Then set taxonomy/term_admin/% (similar to the path from the existing page display).

    7. Try and report back :)

    Greetings,

Still can't get this to work (although admittedly I've not been trying all the time since your reply!)... I just get the frame of my site, with the title of the relevant term and then a blank page with a "Save" button...

There's no easy way to show you the view settings I guess, but I'm attaching a screenshot of the settings I'm using... any ideas?

Here's the site by the way...

Upgrade to the newest version 6.x-3.3-beta2. Some theme-registry issues have been fixed. I guess this is the problem.

But clearing the cache should also do it. But a update is recommended anyway :)
