Lists

Lists are impossible to use. When you are making a list and you change the order it always seems to randomise the order. It never just stays in the order that I make it. Quite frustrating so hopefully this bug is fixed, or will have to use a different website

Hi @Andrewg2002 -

In order for our staff to take a look at your Lists, can you confirm the link to your IMDb Activity page?

@Andrewg2002 Thanks for the confirmation on the issue. The list software is amongst the oldest still running on IMDb and it is scheduled to be updated in 2024. We have made multiple attempts to fix the numbering issue in recent years, but unfortunately none have been successful. The new software is a rewrite from scratch and so will not have the same problems.

The renumbering issue affects a small number of customers on a small number of (often) larger lists. Yours is the first problem report indicating that a large number of lists are affected at the same time. In the meantime before the new software launches, we can renumber any lists with the issue if you provide the URLs.

It would be useful to know if you are re-ordering your lists via the web site or via the iOS app?

I'm looking for an answer that might relate to this. I don't know if what's being discussed are 'lists of lists' being out of order or 'contents within a list' not staying in order. I have a list 'Favorite Male Actors Of All Ages'. For the life of me I can't understand why this list cannot be organized A-Z. I was going to finally give up bookmarking my favorites on my computer (not happy how the URLs are created as duplicates are not detected due to the latter parts of URLs not being the same each time) and instead move everything to an IMDB List. But now I discovered I can't organize them A-Z. Just added a new name 'Aaron _____' but he shows up way at the bottom instead of properly ordered with all the other Aarons. Which means, the more names I add, the more chaotic my list will become. I've never seen a webpage that offers lists not provide an option to alphabetize those lists and the contents of the lists. Baffling.

@PatrickD Please see our comments above:

stay tuned for new features (and new sort orders) when the new lists software launches.
