Category rank updates only after a reload of the page

[JoePetts]

Bug report

Summary

If you rewrite the rank of the category, it will be updated only after reloading the page.

Step to reproduce

Right click on the category, rename, rewrite rank value, save.

Observed behavior

If you right-click on the category again and go back to rename, the old value is still there, although the new content was transferred to the database.

Expected behavior

Here the new values should be updated automatically.

Environment

MODx Revolution 2.8.1-pl
PHP 7.3
MariaDB

This is because the Tree is loaded via AJAX, and is not refreshed upon every change in a resource or element. That's what the Refresh icons are for next to each element section.

This is my contribution in the community which I also wanted to mention here.

@sottwell
Thanks for the clarification, had hardly used the update so far. Now I know in which cases this is useful.

I think it's a bug. The changes should be displayed immediately. The category name changes immediately, but the rank still has the old value if you reopen the Rename dialog.
