Is there an easy way of being able to re-order the fields as they're displayed in the couch admin?

My code looks like this:

Code:

<cms:template title='Home'>
   <cms:editable name="main_content" type="richtext" label="Main Content" />
   <cms:editable name="main_sidebar" type="richtext" label="Main Sidebar"/>
   <cms:repeatable name='hero_slider' label="Hero Slider" >
      <cms:editable type='image' name='slider_image' label='Slider Image (700x277)' />
      <cms:editable type='text' name='slider_description' label='Slider Description' />
   </cms:repeatable>
   <cms:editable name="hero_content" type="richtext" label="Hero Content" />
   <cms:editable name="footer01" type="text" label="Footer" />
</cms:template>

Which, ideally, is the order I'd like the items to show in the admin - but because the main_sidebar was added in after the others, is currently shown at the bottom of the admin screen.

You can make use of the 'order' parameter: http://www.couchcms.com/docs/tags-reference/editable/

Code:

<cms:template title='Home'>
   <cms:editable name="main_content" type="richtext" label="Main Content" order='1' />
   <cms:editable name="main_sidebar" type="richtext" label="Main Sidebar" order='2' />
   <cms:repeatable name='hero_slider' label="Hero Slider" order='3' >
      <cms:editable type='image' name='slider_image' label='Slider Image (700x277)' />
      <cms:editable type='text' name='slider_description' label='Slider Description' />
   </cms:repeatable>
   <cms:editable name="hero_content" type="richtext" label="Hero Content" order='4' />
   <cms:editable name="footer01" type="text" label="Footer" order='5' />
</cms:template>
