📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Field insertion now reserves field-order values in the builder, passes them through the controller and helper, and synchronizes the client counter with server results across related forms.

Changes

Field ordering

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Server field-order contract `classes/controllers/FrmFieldsController.php`, `classes/helpers/FrmFieldsHelper.php`	Field creation accepts an optional `field_order`. The helper stores a positive reservation or allocates the next order, updates submit-row ordering, and calculates the highest order across parent and child forms.
Builder reservation flow `classes/views/frm-forms/form.php`, `js/src/admin/admin.js`	The builder exposes and initializes the next field order, reserves values for insertions, sends them with requests, and synchronizes the counter from returned field-order values.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to d9714

The PR can leave the field-order counter stale after sidebar insertions, so later field additions may reuse an existing order and produce duplicate or misordered fields. This bounded correctness risk should be fixed before merge.

Variable $form might not be defined

A variable has been used but not defined, which may result in warnings during program execution. This can also cause bugs since the intended usage scope of the variable is not known.

Synchronize the counter after sidebar insertion.

Line 1889 reserves a field order for the sidebar insertion path. The successful sidebar handler does not call syncFieldOrderWithResponse(). A section or summary response can add fields and move the submit row above the local counter. The next insertion can then reserve an order already used by that response.

Proposed fix

success( msg ) { + syncFieldOrderWithResponse( msg ); handleAddFieldClickResponse( msg );
