Organize collections and places

Reorder collections and saved places with drag and drop so important items stay easy to reach.

Organize places in a collection or use Settings then Merge to combine accessible source collections into an editable destination. Review duplicates and note, tag, and photo options before Merge places. Source collections remain unchanged.

Use ordering to keep the collections and places you reach for most often near the top.

Reorder collections

On Your collections, drag a collection by its move handle and drop it in the desired position. The list updates immediately while Platix saves the new order.

Reorder saved places

Inside a collection, drag a saved place by its move handle. This changes only its position in that collection. If the same place appears in another collection, its position there is independent.

A saved place row with a drag handle of six dots on the left and a delete button on the right.
The dotted handle on the left is what you drag to reorder. Delete sits at the far right, away from it.

If a move does not save

If a move cannot be saved, Platix restores the last saved order and shows an error. Wait for the current move to finish before making another large reorder, then try again.

For a long list, drag an item directly to its destination instead of moving it one position at a time.

Keep the structure useful

Put active projects first, then arrange places in the order that helps you compare or visit them. Collection order is organizational and does not change public discovery ranking.

Merge overlapping collections

Open a source collection's settings and select Merge under Merge into another collection. In Merge saved places, choose the destination under Merge into. Add other accessible source collections when that option is offered.

Wait for the duplicate check, review the places to add and skip, and choose the available note, tag, and photo options deliberately. Select Merge places only after reviewing the preview. You need edit access to the destination; inaccessible collections cannot be used as sources.

Merging copies non-duplicate places into the destination. Source collections stay unchanged: this does not archive or delete them, and it does not create a trip. Re-check the destination before separately deleting any collection you no longer need.
