General Dashboard and Widget Question - Moving Groups of Widgets

Christopher Loh

Is there a way to move multiple Dashboard elements or widgets all at once?

I'm finding that I have several "metric" widgets on my dashboard and currently I haven't found a way to "select all" and move them as a group. Instead I am currently having to move all of these widgets manually one at a time which can be tedious - in some cases 30 widgets. The ability to highlight and move multiple widgets would be a helpful addition especially in cases when I accidentally add a widget that ends up displacing or moving a whole group of widgets.

Hi @Christopher Loh

I often have the same challenge. Currently there is not a multi-select feature for widgets. My work around is to insert a temp title widget at the bottom and expand it all the way across the dashboard. Then I move it up the dashboard to bulk move everything down. Then I delete the temp title widget. It's not an exact fix but it helps a little.
