Re-ordering Sections and Single Fields

I have a login item with single fields and sections with fields.
When I try to re-order a single field and move it above the sections but it won't let me. I am able to move it into one of the sections or leave it at the bottom.

In the example below I'm trying to move the other_field above SECTION1 but it won't let me. Is this a feature or a bug?

e.g.

```

username
abc

password

xyz

website
https://somesite.com

SECTION1
s1_field1
qwerty

s1_field2
1234

SECTION2
s2_field1
9876

other_field
value
```

Hi there @meckert75

This looks like expected behaviour to me. Fields that aren't in a section will always come after sections.

The basic "hierarchy" of an item is:

  1. Anchored fields (such as Username, Password, and Website in a Login item) that can't be deleted or rearranged
  2. Custom sections and their fields
  3. Custom "orphan" fields without a parent section

If you don't name a section, it won't show a header, so that might help serve as a workaround in your case – maybe create an unnamed section, move other_field into it, then move that new unnamed section above SECTION1.

I hope that explains things fully, but please do let me know if I can be of any further help. :)
