Hello,  
I was trying to re-arrange items on my table to change order of how items appear. It seems like a simple thing to do but I haven’t been able to do it?

There could be several different answers to this, depending on exactly what you are trying to do.

So a screenshot would be helpful 🙂

I wanted to move “Freebies” to appear before “Events”. I thought I could just grab the row and drag but it appears it’s not that simple…

No, you can’t rearrange rows in the table.  
But you can sort the rows if you are displaying them as a list.  
If you want them in a specific order, other than alphabetical, you could add a number column and fill it with numbers (1,2,3,etc) and use that to sort them.

I will keep this in mind but I think this particular screen, I’m not displaying them as a list. This is something I will apply to a list in the future!
