Product ordering not saving

[serazoo]

Hello VM community
Before posting, I do my homework : read posts and try scripts to correct bugs, it's been a week now trying stuff... maybe I'm missing something 

I'm using Joomla 3.9.23 and VirtueMart 3.8.6 10373

-In "configuration", I'm choosing to "sort product" by "order"
-In "products", I have many, so I filter by choosing the category
-I reorder.. but when I click to save... it takes me back showing ALL products as if I've not filtered when I chose the category... wierd.. and obviously not saving the order I've done

One suggestion was to uncheck jquery in "configuration / Template tab".... still no change

Can someone please shed a light on me

product ordering has gone thru a rethink and a new simplified version is being tested by the group currently

it should be released shortly

i Hope that the field get not removed ?
I have a customer using this (ordering is used in a scheme) and it's important for him.

from the testers chat

~~~~~

do not show the ordering for products of subcategories.


So it is easier to understand.

and the dragdnrop works correctly

it just ignores the lines without ordering.

The changes were all to do with BE functionality and the setting of ordering values for products in a BE displayed category

A little more info please what is "BE functionality" ? .. can this be configured by ourselves or we must wait for a VM update?
"GJC Web Design" mentioned : "product ordering is going thru a rethink and a new simplified version is being tested by the group"

Thank you all for your hard work!

Back End functionality

you have to wait till version  com_virtuemart.3.8.7.10380.zip  appears @ http://dev.virtuemart.net/projects/virtuemart/files

and further changes may happen before the stable release

but will be released soon no doubt

I and my customer use my own tool VM Be pro for ordering, because VM have not ability to set manually the ordering of products in a category(sometime the ordering have same number)
So if the ordering get not displayed, it's not a problem, i only need no table changes.
The team already changed  other logic, it's a nightmare when customer have specific request and the logic change, please do not change the tables content !

Just to clarify for general users reading this:

Correct you cannot differentiate the ordering METHOD on a category basis in the Front End. 

But if you set the sequence method in the Front End to be "ordering"

You can set the ordering for products in the Administration area - products will be displayed in the "ordering" sequence (Low to high) set for them in that category -

Which means you DEFINiTELY CAN have different ordering for items even when they belong to multiple categories -

Product ordering is stored as - Product_ID -> Category_ID -> Ordering value

No changes have been made to the tables
And No there is no table change
