I am testing Reorder list and there is one thing that i need and can not find. Where are this sort numbers(1, 2, 3, 4…) that are in front of every item name and where to find to which item they are connected. For example: Category name2, item: First item, Number: 9.

Hello @Zoran.Velinov 👋

By default, the numbers are the index of the item + 1.

If you click on the bound text prop, you’ll see the formula associated.

Hello Jean,

Thank you very much for your answer. However, i am using WeWeb with months and still one of the biggest mystery for me is item.data. Sometime i have it, sometime not. And i still dont have idea when and why. For example now i dont have it:

 ![{82655D3E-C9A4-4708-A4BA-C3D53812ED91}](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/2X/4/410206a37260399b79c4739450094d0fa1793566.png)

I have tried with totally new Reorder list for every case. My text element is on Reorder list(in case this is important) and still i dont have item.data.

The item.data is a contextual variable that appears on _repeated_ items. In the instance of the Reorder list, you would have the `Items` prop binded with an array. Then on the repeated items, in that case, `Item`, when you access the formula panel, you should be able to see the contextual data of the item selected 🙂

(Sometimes, contextexual data cannot be accessed if the element is not rendered on the page.)
