Replace Pagination with "Load More" for Repeater Fields and Reintroduce Drag-and-Drop Reordering
Asaf Moshe
The current pagination system for managing a large number of rows in Repeater fields is inefficient and introduces usability challenges:
- Navigating between pages is cumbersome, especially when switching back and forth frequently.
- Pages with fewer rows sometimes load out of view, disrupting the user experience.
- Drag-and-drop reordering, previously available, is no longer supported due to pagination. The newly introduced number-based reordering system is unintuitive and prone to errors.
Proposed Solution:
Replace the pagination system with a "Load More" functionality. This approach would allow additional rows to load dynamically below the already visible rows, improving navigation and usability. Benefits include:
- Enhanced User Experience: Users can view and interact with all rows on a single page without disruption.
- Reintroduction of Drag-and-Drop: Removing pagination enables the return of the intuitive drag-and-drop interface for reordering rows.
- Improved Workflow Efficiency: Eliminates confusion caused by the number-based reordering method.
This change would streamline workflows for users managing extensive datasets in Repeater fields while maintaining performance and usability.
