P: [Lightroom Web] Unable to reorder photos in an Album set to Custom order

Hello,

 

I've encountered a bug in Lightroom Web: I am unable to reorder the photos of an album which sort order ("Sort by") has been set to "Custom Order".

 

Information:

  • OS: Windows 11 Profesionnal - 25H2 - 26200.6899
  • Web browsers: tested on the latest versions (including in incognito mode) of both :
    • Chrome: 142.0.7444.135
    • Edge: 142.0.3595.69

 

Reproduction steps:

1. Create an album with some photos

2. Set sort order to "Custom Order"

3. Try to drag-and-drop some photos (a single one or several selected ones) to reorder them → nothing happens

 

Expected result:

A marker appears where you drag the selected photos, allowing you to drop them and reordering them.

 

Workaround:

Photos can be reordered in the Mobile app:

The new order appears in the Web app after refreshing:

 

However, this is not satisfactory as it is impossible to drag-and-drop several photos at once, which makes reordering big albums extremely time consuming.

 

 

Thank you in advance for addressing this.

 

Best regards
