Hi,

I am using NodeRed 1.0.6 for some reason I cannot upgrade my NodeRed. But I want to move position of widget in NodeRed.

For example, I want to move Stack 1, which should be next to Stack 2.  
Thank you very much, guys.

Go to the `Dashboard` tab in the sidebar

and rearrange the groups and deploy the changes.

Yes, but it works only in new version. For my version, NodeRed doesn't have dashboard. That is why I ask 🙄

How did you build your dashboard then? Are you using a dashboard node? If so, which one?

I am using this dashboard node "node-red-dashboard".

But it doesn't have layout, site, theme functions. 🙁

Click on the down icon for more options and you will see the dashboard tab

cn-dashboard-nodes may be interfering with the node-red dashboard. It seems you are not using it so remove it.
