Hi
Why can't I change the position of the custom field for the product type in version 6.5?
I created a Product Custom Field called **intro\_text**.
On the product management page, in the Form customization section, I created a block called **Intro info** and moved the **intro\_text** custom field into this new block. So far, everything is correct.
But when I tried to position this block next to the Description block, everything gets messed up and when I save the product page, the **Intro info** block goes back to its original position, at the bottom of all blocks.
This problem did not exist in version 6.1 And I could drag and drop to change the location of different blocks. In version 6.5 this could only be done with the **Move up** and **Move down** buttons, but the new block that is created does not have these buttons and the drag and drop function does not work either.

Hello,

Thank you for the report, you are right, this is a regression on our side. On the product edit page, the built-in blocks could still be reordered, but a block that you create yourself did not receive the up/down move buttons and was not registered in the block order, so it stayed at the bottom and lost its position when you saved.

This is now fixed. A patched 6.5.1 build with the correction is available, so please update HikaShop (download the install package on our website in My account&gt;My subscriptions and install it on your website via the Joomla extensions installer) to get it. After updating, a block you create gets its move buttons straight away and keeps the position you give it after saving, with no manual change needed.
