Description

Hi everybody,

Does anybody know how to save the position of the elements after dragging in the database with ajax (in a column position) ?

With an another configuration, i used :

$(function() {
$("container_with_all_images").sortable({
update: function(e, ui){
ui.placeholder.height(ui.item.height());
Rails.ajax({
url: $(this).data("url"),
type: "PATCH",
data: $(this).sortable('serialize')
});
}
}).disableSelection();

});

Thx !

Jean

Research direction

No repository file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reviewing the sortable update callback, Rails.ajax request, data-url, and sortable serialization shown in the issue; the work would need a specified persistence endpoint and an agreed definition of how the saved positions should be verified.
