Hi there,
Reordering fields currently isn’t really easy or stable. We have a PHP snippet that shows you HOW you could do it, but we don’t generally recommend it right now:
https://github.com/impress-org/give-snippet-library/blob/master/form-customizations/customize-fieldset-order.php
That snippet doesn’t do exactly what you need, but it shows you how you could customize the fields in different orders.
We do plan to have a more robust form API that will make this process FAR easier and our forms FAR more flexible, but that won’t be until next calendar year at the earliest.
Thanks!
I like to add a few thoughts as you put this capability together. My non-mobile donors also find it confusing that the option to select a custom amount is at the bottom of the pre-set donation level list while the box to enter that amount at the top of the list. They are not sure what to do once they select enter a custom amount.
I’m not much of a front end designer, but FWIW, I like the large number up top when fixed donation levels are selected – maybe it can look less like an entry box and more like an echo of a selection, and perhaps the top box can disappear and instead open near the custom field when that is selected.
Another option is to have the enter a custom amount option be listed first rather than at the end after the pre-set amounts are displayed.
We’ve had to label our custom field “Enter custom amount … select this button and enter custom amount in box, above.”
Give custom amount placement

This was the reason for our request too. The client found the custom amount field confusing because of its relation to the custom amount button.
