# Wrong term order

 * Hello,
 * Very nice little plugin. I noticed just one issue with it. For instance, I have
   3 terms:
 * – Cat 1
    – Cat 2 — Subcat of Cat 2
 * and I wish to drag Cat 1 so that it’s positioned after Cat 2 (and, of course,
   its subcat).
 * But when I am trying to drag Cat 1 below Cat 2, it becomes a new subcat of Cat
   2.
 * That is, what I need is:
 * – Cat 2
    — Subcat of Cat 2 – Cat 1
 * What I really have is:
 * – Cat 2
    — Subcat of Cat 2 — Cat 1 (it’s now a subcat)
 * Thanks in advance!
 * Nadia

 * Hi Nadia,
 * This is intended behaviour. If you drop a term in between child terms it will
   become child term itself.
    To position term bellow “Cat 2” from your example 
   you would need to put it below all children/subcategories.
 * I do realize this can be problematic in certain situations, and I did give this
   a lot of thought while building, but until I find some free time and develop 
   dragging on the x-axis (so you could actually choose whether you want it to become
   child or not) it will have to stay the way it is right now.
