I want to let the admin of a Magento site I'm developing to sort the products in a category arbitrary, this is that Magento shouldn't order them by price, name or anything else. Ideally, the admin would see a list of products and drag n' drop products to sort them.
The best approach I could think of is to create a custom numeric attribute and then sort by that attribute on the template file, but that would be pretty annoying for the user. Any other ideas?
