I’ve got a UCF dropdown with 31 options, in a carefully curated order. After saving, the bottommost 4 went to the top, and all the rest shuffle down. The editing was in Chrome on a Win 10 machine.

This occurred again after I patched it up (again in Chrome).

Patching it up in IE11 after this worked and now it is sorted.

Yes, I know that 31 options seems excessive, but I have a good use-case!!

Is this still the case?

I don’t think so, especially as the mechanism for re-ordering options was introduced a couple of years back.

Pretty sure you can safely close this!
