Custom fields in custom order, not aphabetical
completed
David
The change in the main task info window where fields inc custom fields dissapeared and are now viewable, except only in alphabetical is a total destruction for my company.
We would go into a task (Company/client) as we are using the CRM template and the fields would be in order of workflow - first the contact name, town etc, then date of first enquiry and so-on.
Now with fields displayed alphabetically - this has rendered ClickUp almost useless to us and has wasted months of data-entry.
PLEASE ALLOW US TO SET IN ONE ACTION ACROSS A WHOLE SPACE OR LIST TO HAVE CUSTOM FIELD ORDERS AS BEFORE.

You can achieve this by checking the option "sort custom field manually" in your Custom Field ClickApp settings from your settings page 🙂

Sortable / movable custom field values
Daniel Nordmark
One suggestion to make custom fields even more easy to use is to make them sortable.
I find myself wanting to change position of a specific value.
Example: I have a list with text values, that have some sort of logic in the way it's sorted (alphabetically or something else). But when I need to add a new value it seems that the only place to add it is at the bottom. When it maybe would make more sense to have it at another position.

Custom sorting of custom fields
Tor André Sandum
My custom fields appear in the wrong order on my cards. I want to be able to sort them in the order I need.

Hey Tor André Sandum! I'll merge this to another related request and surface it to the team 🙂

Yes! Ability to sort label and dropdown custom field options would be great... newly added options are added at the end only, and require manual sorting.... troublesome if there are a lot of options.

Yes. We need an option to sort by custom field.

You can sort the custom fields against each other on the create screen. They still always appear after standard fields. However, it would make the list view more usable if they could be dragged to any position.

Eva Bitteker: I think you misunderstood me. I don't mean to sort custom fields against each other. I mean to sort the actual values for a specific custom field. See the attached image. If I want to add a couple of new names to the list they automatically are placed at the bottom.
For some fields I think it would be very handy to be able to manually sort the values.
