Yes, I have set fixed category positions in the settings screen.
Then when I go to configure the order, no matter what order I set them to, no matter what numbers I assign, I can never save it.

Can you repro this @techapj?
Just to be clear:
v1.7.0.beta8 +40
Take this screenshot for example, I have manually reversed the order yet the button is still greyed out.
I was able to apply the change, but cannot save it and my order is never actually altered. Sorry for the brief bug report at first.
Yes I can repro this on latest Discourse version. Reorder categories modal is not even showing up on my development instance.
I think reorder-categories controller is broken after latest Ember upgrade. Can you have a look @eviltrout?

Odd that its not even showing up.
Quick question, I followed the instructions on how to set up discourse and ended up on a beta branch, I’d much prefer a stable non-beta, is there anyway to downgrade, or do a manual install for a specific version (I am a luddite apologies)
See:
You want to be on stable branch.

See I’m confused, apparently I am already running tests-passed yet my version is clearly a beta version…
I changed the app.yml but when I do a git status it shows me as still on origin/master.
In app.yml change
version: tests-passed
to
version: stable
Then run these commands:
git pull
./launcher rebuild app
I hope it’s clear now.
Apologies, I must be doing something incorrect. In app.yml I have changed it to both tests-passed and stable, saved the file and performed a pull.
However doing a git status still shows me on origin/mainline.
Doing a git branch -a shows I am on remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master.
I am sure I am doing something wrong, I’m sorry, but not sure exactly what.
That status is for discourse_docker repository. Discourse version will be reflected in source of /latest page after your perform rebuild.
Ahh I see, again sorry, what is the differnece between tests-passed and stable? The how-to link provided earlier suggested test-passed. Just curious, I don’t see stable mentioned in that thread at all.
Looks like tests-passed kept me on the same version but stable fixed it for me, cheers!
Note that you cannot downgrade versions however. So if you are on a new version, changing to an older one… won’t work.

There was definitely an Ember regression here with SortableMixin which is no longer present. I’ve fixed it here:
https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/69ff0e48b4b50ad3df78dcb4f52915eef6850de9
Having said that, I’m not 100% sure that fixes the problem in the OP. I found the interface a little confusing, but when I reordered categories, I first had to hit “Fix Positions” before I could hit “Save Order” which was unintuitive. Once I did that though, things seemed to save?

Well I went from 1.7.0 Beta to 1.6.8, and am seeing no ill effects.
Would you suggest doing a clean install? I am not opposed to that, it is a brand new site so I would not be losing much, if you think it would be safer.
Yeah this dialog has always been a voodoo salad
