Hi, I have 2 requests

1. I have 30 attributes on my listings, for easy accessibility and view, I want to rearrange them in a particular order, so that when I edit a listing on my dashboard the attributes are in that particular order on my dashboard. for easy view. and if possible group some attributes together.

2. I have a custom field that serve as a unique identifier for each listing, but when I search it in the search box provided on the backend for admin the result is not always accurate.

$form[‘fields’][‘private\_notes’][‘\_order’] = 32;

return $form;  
},  
1000  
);

this is the code. but it is not working. can you pls check if something is wrong with it?

1. I need properties on my website to be searchable by an attribute on the backend ( property id)  
this seems to be working but most time it returns a wrong result. the property id for each listing is unique but it still some times return a result with a different property id.  
some times the search returns nothing

please note: this is working perfectly on the front end.

Hi,

1. The snippet looks good, but make sure you specify the field attribute correctly in the code. Also, add a snippet using this doc: [How to add custom code snippets - HivePress Help Center](https://help.hivepress.io/article/23-how-to-add-custom-code-snippets)

2. WordPress should search correctly if the attribute is marked as Indexable. Also, please note that this is a WP-level feature.

Hi,

If you are referring to custom fields, they automatically accept the order that you specify in Listings \> Attributes. If you are referring to built-in fields, then only with the help of a custom implementation.
