I have a menu where I can create dynamic blocks and put in some fields.
When I drag a field into on of the blocks, I also want them to be sortable across several blocks. But they are only sortable inside on block.
This is my HTML code:
<div class="draggable">
<h2>Structure elements</h2>
<div class="structure">
<div class="item1 e1" data-class="e1">New block</div>
<div class="item1 e2" data-class="e2">New headline</div>
</div>
<h2>Fields</h2>
<div class="fields">
<div class="item2">Date</div>
<div class="item2">Time</div>
<div class="item2">Text</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sortable"></div>
That's the JS
$(".sortable").sortable({
receive: function (event, ui) {
var itemClass = $(ui.item).attr("data-class");
$(".sortable ." + itemClass).css({
height: "auto",
width: "auto"
});
}
});
$(".structure .item1").draggable({
connectToSortable: ".sortable",
helper: "clone",
revert: "invalid",
stop: function (event, ui) {
$(".sortable .item1").sortable({
revert: false
});
}
});
$(".fields").sortable({
connectWith: ".sortable .item1",
items: "> .item2"
});
Do you have an idea how I could make fields, that are dragged to a cloned block, sort/drag to another block?
Fields shouldn't be cloned, each field is unique and can be used only once.
Here https://codepen.io/alphafrau/pen/PoQRmYm you find an example of my current code.
In this example, the elements are dragged across columns, so in your code just add connectWith: ".item1"
in this part:
stop: function (event, ui) {
$(".sortable .item1").sortable({
connectWith: ".item1",
revert: false,
stop: function () {
console.log($(this));
},
});
},
