In the admin panel on the left side is a list of various menus sections like phrases, templates, users, forums, etc. Where is the sort order kept for this list? I've had a couple of mods that added menu items either at the top or between other related menu functions. I would like to organize my main admin menu a little better if I can. I'm guessing it would be a display order list in the database but can't seem to find it. VB3.8.7
Look at the includes/xml folder. Those menus are described in the cpnav_*.xml files. There are displayorder attributes you could change. Mods will sometimes add a cpnav xml file, but I have seen at least one that added a menu from a plugin (so there would be no xml file).

Thank you. I wasn't even close to looking there and this issue has bugged me for some time now. Much appreciated.

Worked perfectly kh99. One other question on this is how the grouping of similar menu items might work. If you look at the stock menu items all user options are grouped together as are forums, thread, and images with a double space before the next group. Is this also managed in the xml files?
