Sortable and Droppable Jquery keeps on replacing data in wordpress

1 Views

I am trying to do a sort the data which is in a HTML form in to the div. Each time I drag new item, it will replace the previous item instead of sorting it from the top or the bottom. I don’t think there is anything to do with wordpress here. Is just that I am developing it in wordpress. What have I done wrong or have I missed? Below are the code.

$(function () {
    $("#blocks").droppable({
        drop: function (event, ui) {
            var id = ui.draggable.attr('id');
            layout = $.ajax({type:"GET",url:'wp-content/themes/dynamictheme/templates/' + id + '.html',async:false}).responseText;
            $("#blocks").wrap( layout );

        }
    }).sortable({
        revert: true
    });
    $(".draggable").draggable({
         helper: "clone"
    });
});

  1. you are not dropping the data as a list item, append the layout variable inside a list element to the #blocks ul

    $("#blocks").droppable({
    drop: function (event, ui) {
        var id = ui.draggable.attr('id');
        layout = $.ajax({type:"GET",url:'wp-content/themes/dynamictheme/templates/' + id + '.html',async:false}).responseText;
         $("#blocks").append('<li>' + layout + '</li>');

    }

  2. Use two sortable lists instead of draggable and droppable then use this code:

    $(function() {
  $("#list2").sortable({
    connectWith:'.connect',
    stop: function (event, ui) {
      var id = ui.item.sortable.attr('id');
      ui.item.html($.ajax({type:"GET",url:'wp-content/themes/dynamictheme/templates/' + id + '.html',async:false}).responseText);
  }
   $("#blocks").sortable({
      connectWith:'.connect'
    });

 });
