How about the ability to sort modules in the admin side of xoops? For instance, I have 27, yes 27, modules installed on my instance of xoops, but I only USE (in my menu) 9 of them. For some reason, XOOPS has a random method about sorting those installed modules. What a hindrance!

Just to test this out, tonight I did a personal clone of a games module I made. I copied it, uninstalled the original, and then installed them both...one right after the other. TADA! The one that I had named Games2 showed up at the 3rd spot on my modules list while the original that I had renamed (so clever) as Games1 showed up on the bottom of the list. ....um....huh?!?!

Anyways, my point is that things would be MUCH easier to manage on a site that had SOME form of order that the Admin could choose! I not only want the Module list ( hover over System > Modules ) sorted, but I would also like the order of the modules that have admin prefs sortable as well. If I make it hidden, move the damn thing to the end or the beginning of the list!

You can easily order your modules to your wishes using "weight" in the module admin...
