XenCustomize Resource Prefix Sorter 2.0.0

XenCustomize Resource Prefix Sorter for XenForo 2​

Sort resource prefix choices consistently across XenForo Resource Manager prefix selectors

Resource Prefix Sorter lets you control how XenForo Resource Manager's existing resource prefix options are ordered anywhere Resource Manager provides a resource prefix selector (admin and public flows).

This add-on is lightweight, practical, and ideal for communities with many resource prefixes.

It focuses only on sorting existing resource prefix choices. It does not add filtering features, custom prefix listings, or a replacement prefix UI.

Key Features​

  • Display order (default XenForo Resource Manager behavior)

  • Alphabetical (Z-A)

• Newest-first support using addon-owned metadata
• Built to match XenCustomize Thread Prefix Sorter behavior for consistent prefix sorting across your site

• You want resource prefix sorting to behave consistently with thread prefix sorting

What This Add-on Does​

What This Add-on Does Not Do​
