As a staff member who deeply understands the operation of AnQiCMS, I understand the importance of website navigation for user experience and information architecture.A clear and easy-to-manage navigation system is the foundation of a successful website.Regarding the question of whether the Anqi CMS backend currently supports drag-and-drop sorting of navigation links, I will give you a detailed explanation.
In the Anqi CMS backend management system, the navigation link management function is designed to be intuitive and practical, aiming to help operations personnel efficiently organize website content.The navigation link settings are located under the "Navigation Settings" module in the "Background Settings", where you can centrally manage various navigation content on the website.
Currently, the navigation sorting mechanism of Anqi CMS mainly depends on a field named "display order".When creating or editing navigation links, operations personnel need to manually specify a number for each link as its display order.The system will sort these numbers from small to large, and the smaller the number, the closer the navigation link will be displayed on the front-end page.This means that if you want to adjust the order of a navigation link, you need to enter the editing interface of the link, manually modify the value of the "display order" to achieve the purpose of reordering.This method can achieve the sorting function, but it may not be flexible and convenient for websites that need to frequently adjust a large number of navigation links.
According to the current system documentation and functionality, the Anqi CMS backend currently does not support adjusting the sorting of navigation links directly through drag-and-drop.This means you cannot change the position of the navigation items in the list by dragging them with the mouse as you can in some visual editors.The current interaction design of the system requires you to control the arrangement order of each navigation link precisely through numeric input.
However, it is worth noting that the system documentation also clearly states that although the drag-and-drop sorting function is not yet available, this feature is already in the subsequent development plan.This means that in future version updates, AnQi CMS is expected to introduce a convenient drag-and-drop sorting operation to further improve the efficiency and user experience of backend management, making the adjustment of navigation links more intuitive and time-saving.At this point, we still need to continue using the manual input of numbers to manage the navigation order.
