Hello,  
Is it possible to change default attributes order in submit listing form? I would need to change description / youtube / spotify order.

Please try this PHP snippet to start. In this way, it is possible to change the order for other fields in the listing submit form

```auto
add_filter(
	'hivepress/v1/forms/listing_submit',
	function( $form ) {
		$form['fields']['description']['_order'] = 1;

		return $form;
	},
	1000
);

```

Hmm, i tried it, but it looks like that this snippet moves selected field to top and doesn’t look at the number that was inserted. For example I have 4 fields that have 1,2,3,4 order numbers and I insert 5 into description field, but the description field is still at the top, but it should be below the 4th attribute.

$form[‘fields’][‘description’][’\_order’] = 5;

Please make sure that you have set the correct field names for other fields to change their order. For example, it will be `$form['fields']['title']['_order']` for field Title. If you’re familiar with PHP basics please try to output the fields this way:

```auto
add_filter(
	'hivepress/v1/forms/listing_submit',
	function( $form ) {
        var_dump($form['fields']);
		die();
		return $form;
	},
	1000
);

```

This will output all the fields keys/field names on the front-end, so you’ll be able to use them with a sample snippet above to re-order any fields

Also, you can share your code snippet here if the issue persists

It works great in listing submit form. but how to do the same for listing edit page?

```auto
add_filter(
'hivepress/v1/forms/listing_submit',
function( $form ) {
$form['fields']['title']['_order'] = 2;
$form['fields']['images']['_order'] = 3;
$form['fields']['description']['_order'] = 4; 

return $form;
},
1000
);

```

Please change `listing_submit` to `listing_update`

Thanks, I got it. And how about front end. Would you please write a snippet code sample to reorder images 1, title 2, description 3

```auto
add_filter(
	'hivepress/v1/forms/listing_submit',
	function( $form ) {
        var_dump($form['fields']);
		die();
		return $form;
	},
	1000
);

```

</div>

Please try the same snippet but for the `listing_update` form:

```auto
add_filter(
'hivepress/v1/forms/listing_update',
function( $form ) {
$form['fields']['title']['_order'] = 2;
$form['fields']['images']['_order'] = 3;
$form['fields']['description']['_order'] = 4; 

return $form;
},
1000
);

```

Change 2, 3, 4 numbers to adjust the order. This will also affect the `listing_submit` form if there’s no specific snippet for it since this form inherits the `listing_update` one.

Hello everyone. I really want to switch around the fields in the form to submit the listing, to improve the ux. I have not understood how to do it following the guides. It seems to be an array coming from somewhere. Can anyone help me with that? Thanks
