How can I change the order of popups on an ArcGIS Online Map

[bshepard]

I have 3 layers (2 point and 1 line) that coincide, let's call them A, B, and C.  I have tried several things to get the popup order to be A (1 of 3), B,(2 of 3), C (3 of 3): ordering the layers in Content with A on top, then B, then C; renaming them so that they are in alphabetical order; creating copies of the layers in a specific order.  No matter what I try, the popups appear in the order B, A, C.  They don't seem to order in the order they appear in Content or the Legend, alphabetically, or in order of creation/modification.  Is there any way to force one layer's popup to display 1st, or specify the order in which the popups display?

Hi @MikeMinami ,

I see this comment is from 2014.  Is this 'fastest wins' approach still the case, or is there now a way to configure the order that the pop ups are presented in?

I see this comment is from 2021. Is this fastest wins approach still the case in 2023?? @RhettZufelt did you ever find an answer to this?

Has this issue been resolved? This is getting to be a real need as we are pushing Portal/AGOL webmaps more to our clients with more data in them. it is unfortunate they have to click multiple times, or click the arrow to cycle through results. 

thanks

Hi Mike, 

I am wondering if there is any update to this pop up question.  The goal is to be able to establish the order the user sees the pop-ups in, to set a priority to the pop-ups.  

Thank you.

Oops, sorry, I thought this was referring to another idea I posted. This one has not been resolved, and I get the feeling it will never be. Sorry.

Hi @MikeMinami ,

Please correct me if I am wrong:

I do not see new api calls/network traffic upon clicking a feature on the map.

So I suppose the web map is likely determining the popup order based on the features that are drawn/returned first on the map.

Then using that returned cached data on the client side to display on the clicked feature

Popup display order has changed since the first post...

Popup display order is controlled by the layer order in the map. Layers at the top of the layer list get their popup displayed first.
