When I entering a custom field, I can cahnge the order of the field. The order is showed on the frondend as expected.
But when I edit the product in the backend the ordering of the field is based on the ID of the field instead of the order_field.

Is this done on purpose or am I missing someting? It should be nice if this follows the frondend. Reason, somtimes it customer friendly to have them in the proper order. Easiers to mange fot hte end user. Especialy when you decide to add later an extra field.

Is this possible? In the attachment yo see the custome fields which the order (sort\) vanue behind it.

Hi,

On the backend, the default order should be the same as on the frontend.
However, you can drag &amp; drop the fields on the interface (like any setting on the product page). So you can have any order you want there. And once the order of the fields has been saved for the product edit backend interface, if you change the general order of the fields, it won't be taken into account on the product edit page.
