I recently transplanted this vine and it seems to be struggling. This one had roots to start with, so should I put it in water first for a few days or straight into soil?

From what I have read, it does not need too much water and in fact should not be overwatered. I also saw that it does not prefer direct sunlight. The yellow on the leaves closer to the roots can mean overwatered but yellow in all leaves can mean malnourished. I pur it in new “moisture control” potting soil.

The burnt leaves can mean too much direct sunlight, so I moved it to a bookshelf away from the window, but that didnt seem like enough light.

I’m kind of at a loss here. Do I need to do something different or just give it time to heal from transplanting? Any insight is appreciated.

It definitely gives me over watered vibes, but I am just a hobbyist, no expert knowledge. If it's freshly transplanted, I'd give it a few days and see how it adapts. I don't know what moisture control potting soil contains (I assume some kind of plant-friendly dessicant?), but it could be reacting to that? I wouldn't move it around too much more without giving it time to recover after transplanting, tho.
