Installing Sortable Plugin in a working site

OK - if all we need is the jquery-ui.min.js and the freely available jquery-ui-touch-punch, what exactly am I paying for with my 29 euros? Is there some MDB treatment of sortable that you are providing? I'm already using jquery-ui.min.js 1.12.1 which I currently have loaded prior to mdb.js. I will move it below the mdb.js and see what happens.

Our MDB product jQuery has classes that are closely related to jQuery Sortable. Although at first glance this code may not differ, it works a little differently.

If you feel the need, please contact our Customer Care department for further discussion. You will find them at this address: contact@mdbootstrap.com

Dear cdenby,

Please open the MDB-Sortable_4.7.4/js/addons directory, and copy the jquery-ui.min.js and jquery-ui-touch-punch.min.js files to your site's js directory.

After this, import that files in your index.html file right after importing the mdb.min.js file.

Now your site is able to use the Sortable plugin.

Best Regards,

Damian

One other note on the Sortable utility that folks should know. It appears that the sortable objects must be visible before they can be activated. if you try to activate them before they are visible, it will fail.I was using fadeIn with an Ajax call to put the sortable objects on the screen, but because my call to .sortable() was prior to them being visible, it failed.I needed to perform the delay operation to get it to work:

$(container).one("webkitAnimationEnd mozAnimationEnd MSAnimationEnd oanimationend animationend", function() {
    $("#sortablething").sortable();
});
