I asked Dr. Minke about this and he suggested I post on the forum to see if anyone can help adjust the script.

Did I hear someone call my name?

In version 2.54.3, you can use something like this (note, it may not work in future versions if the HTML structure is changed again):

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
 
  $(document).ready(function(){
 
    // New position of the "Other" row (edit as required)
    var newPosition = 3;  
 
    //// NO EDITING REQUIRED BELOW HERE ////
 
    var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}');
 
    var otherRow = $('.answer-item[id$="other"]', thisQuestion).parent();
    var replaceRow = $('.answer-item:eq('+(newPosition-1)+')', thisQuestion).parent();
 
    $(replaceRow).before($(otherRow));
  });
</script>

var move_element="javatbd{SGQ}"+move_element;
$("#"+move_element).insertBefore("#"+place_before);
});
</script>
