Here are highlights from Wagtail 7.2. For more details, view the full [v7.2 release notes](https://docs.wagtail.org/en/latest/releases/7.2.html).

## Reordering support for snippets

Snippet listings now support reordering of items using drag-and-drop, similarly to pages. Once enabled by a developer, this becomes available in the listing’s "Actions". The order of items will then reflect on the website where enabled.

## Media listings improvements

Admin and document listings now support filtering by usage count. Image choosers now have both grid and list layouts, with a new toggle for users to switch between the two. The new toggle has also been added to standalone image listings for consistency.

## Readability score metric

Built-in [content checks](https://guide.wagtail.org/en-latest/reference/content-checks/) now include a readability score, based on length of words and sentences in the page content. The content metrics also now provide an explainer panel detailing how they are calculated.

## Quick access to first validation error

![Validation error message on page publish with go to first error shortcut button](https://guide-media.wagtail.org/images/Validation_error_message_on_page_publish_with_.width-900.png)

Error messages for form validation errors now contain a “Go to the first error” shortcut button. This speeds up navigating to address error messages, particularly for forms split between multiple tabs, where the errors can be hard to locate.

## Keyboard shortcuts improvements

We introduce two new shortcuts, ? to open the keyboard shortcuts dialog, and / to focus the search input in the sidebar. The keyboard shortcuts dialog has been reorganized into better categories. when keyboard shortcuts are disabled in user preferences, the “add comment” shortcut is also disabled, and messaging has been added to the keyboard shortcuts dialog to indicate the status of keyboard shortcuts and how to enable or disable them via user preferences.
