Good Morning Martin & Vmix Team. I'd like to suggest this simple feature where the user is able to arrange the title, names, bible verses, text or anything that has been added to the list. Currently, once the list has been created there's no way of doing this and it would require the user to remove the existing ones and create in the order desired by the user. This feature should not be too hard to implement but it helps a lot. Our lists are big and we have many entries. It would be very handy to be able to move up the entries used more often. In our case we use it at our church and we have many people that participate at random intervals of time. Organizing the names is definitely a must-do for us. Thanks for taking this into consideration & Happy New Year 2021!

have a look at using datasources, will benefit you well

easier to modify (source), remote updating ,transfer, have an overview (larger list display) , less error prone, shortcut controllable (selectable by position) etc especially for large lists

Using the import/export to CSV makes it very easy with a simple Notepad editor.
Or using the datasource like Doggy said...

Thanks for your ideas guys. I´ve been looking into what you mentioned and although those options are helpful I still believe my suggestion is relevant since it will be faster to just move up/down items like we do with items on a LIST of videos, it won´t require workarounds or going deep into the settings. The database I will definitely use in some more extreme situations where I need 40 or more names. Thanks again

Those are not workarounds! is what they are intended for and invoke less steps than currently used (even with reorder option) in overal use!
