I am using QGIS 3.36.3.
I have created a project for lithogeochemical sampling.
I have configured absolutely all the fields, but I have a few questions:
-
How can I change the order of the fields I have created in the “Fields” section? I need this because, in the end, I need to have a unified form for exporting the database. Specifically, I need to place the “PICET” and “PROFIL” fields after the “BOOK” field.
-
When I have built the project in QField and start editing points, I can’t take a photo. To be more precise, I tap the camera icon – the phone switches to camera mode, then I tap to take a photo, but the photo isn’t taken and isn’t attached.
I need the photos I take to be added to the “03_photos” folder.
I believe you selected a remote storage type, hence the authentication settings. Try setting it to “Select Existing file” and make sure the folder you want to save to is setup as an attachment directory in you project properties.
For the fields: I think the field order determined by the source. So to change the order your fields are shown in here, you might have to change the order in the source.
However, if you change the drop-down on top to “Drag and Drop Designer” which will give you a second column to drag your fields into. There you will be able to determine the order yourself, without making any changes to the data structure.
Let me know if you have any more questions!
HI @savvachistjakow - In regards to the photos. Yes @fggs-pascal is right. You have to add the folder to the attachments.
In regards to the order of the fields - you can use the algorithm “Refactor fields” and arrange your fields accordingly.

Keep in mind that the processing tool Refactor Fields creates a new datalayer, so you have to save that layer and you either have to use Change Data Source so your original layer uses the new datalayer or copy-paste all the styling from the original layer to the new layer and remove the old layer.
