I want to change the display order of the elements, is that possible?

Why change the display order?

Key points • The order of elements influences the readability and consistency of your site • You can organize your content according to automatic or manual criteria • A good structure improves the user experience and your hotel SEO

Changing the display order of items in a CMS collection is entirely possible and is even one of the most useful tools for effectively structuring your hotel content. Whether you want to highlight certain rooms, organize your articles by date, or display your offers in a specific order, you have several simple methods to achieve this.

To begin, go to the page where your CMS collection is displayed via a Collection List. Select the Collection List Wrapper block and then open its sorting settings. The sorting determines the order in which the items appear on your site.

The most common solution is to sort by an existing field in your collection. Available options include: • Date (useful for displaying the most recent content first) • Name (alphabetical order, useful for rooms or services) • Numeric field (priority, custom order, position) • Boolean / Featured (to highlight certain items)

💡 Tip: For complete control, add a numeric field named “Order,” “Position,” or “Priority.” Then, assign values ​​to each item (10, 20, 30, etc.) and sort your items based on this field. This gives you maximum flexibility if you need to reorganize content regularly.

If you are already using sorting by date or category, make sure that all the necessary fields are filled in correctly. An item without a date or with an incorrect value may end up in an unexpected position in the list.

Once you've configured your sorting, preview your page to ensure the display matches your expectations. You can combine sorting with filters for even greater precision, for example: displaying only current offers, sorted by start date.

If you have multiple sections using the same collection (for example, a list on the homepage and another on an internal page), each section can have its own sorting. This allows you to highlight different content in different contexts.

Conclusion

Yes, it is entirely possible to change the display order of the elements. Thanks to dynamic sorting options or a custom "Order" field, you precisely control how your hotel website presents your content.
