Weight

Hello

I have a new installation of Commons and am also a new user of Drupal.

I would like to change the block configuration and add blocks to various pages. I go to Administer > Site Building > Blocks and can add blocks to where I want them. However, I cannot move them up or down. It is clear to me that Commons is pre-configured but it is also clear that I can add new blocks and, perhaps, change the default layout.

I desperately need to sort a view by taxonomy term weight BUT my key vocabulary is 4 levels deep and term weights appear to "reset" at each level. So, for instance, in my vocabulary the terms District, Elementary and Pre-K all have a weight of 0. For example, a portion of the taxonomy for a school site that I'm building looks like this:

Extracurricular / Weight=14
-- Administration / Weight=0
---- Clerical / Weight=0
-- Athletics / Weight=1
---- Baseball / Weight=0
---- Basketball / Weight=1
---- Cheerleading / Weight=2
