Christoper Drane's solution above is an awesome supplement to Chris' tutorial. I had the same issue - font awesome was not working until after the spinner was cached. I switched to a pure CSS solution per http://stephanwagner.me/only-css-loading-spinner using relative positioning and on a div itself instead of the before pseudo element. Much faster, no hiccups, and works everywhere!

Thanks, Chris. Strangely, Rails.ajax doesn't fire an ajax request for me even though $.ajax works fine. I'm using Rails 5.1.5 and I've confirmed the rails-ujs file is included. Good to know about the authenticity token being included in every request with Rails.ajax.

A few pretty basic observations/questions:
(1) When I use:
(1) When I use:
Rails.ajax
nothing hits the server after the drag/drop is complete.
I changed to:
I changed to:
$.ajax
and that fixed the problem. Any ideas why the former did not work and the latter did?
(2) Instead of
(2) Instead of
//= require jquery-ui/widget //= require jquery-ui/sortable
I needed to use
//= require jquery-ui/widgets/sortable
to avoid an error message. I suspect this has something to do with either (a) a new version of jquery-ui or (b) my lack of understanding of the asset pipeline.
(3) My implementation required me to the skip authenticity token on the sort method with:
(3) My implementation required me to the skip authenticity token on the sort method with:
skip_before_action :verify_authenticity_token, only: [:sort]
How does the code in this tutorial work without skipping the authenticity token verification?
Thanks, as always, for such wonderful tutorials!
