Hey Framer Community,

I need your help!

I'm using the CMS drag-and-drop handle to set a custom order for items in a collection (Projects). This works perfectly on the live site — items appear exactly in the order I set in the CMS list.

But in the Canvas preview, the order is different: all items with Draft status are pushed to the front, and only after those does my custom-ordered list follow (see Screenshot, the grey ones are the draft projects). So the preview doesn't match the CMS order (or the live result).

To be clear:

Live site → correct order ✅

Canvas preview → Draft items first, then the custom order ❌

Is anyone else seeing this? Is it a known bug, or am I missing a setting somewhere?

Can anyone help me:)?

Thanks!
