So I went to admin options and selected group key to be showed. It did- BUT. Being the OCD person I am, I can't stand the fact that they are not in the order I want them to be, and I've not yet found an option to do so - Please help my OCD!

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Forum version: SMF 2.0.11

If you change "It did- BUT. Being" to "It did - BUT: Being", you will increase the chances of another OCD person to reply.

Although I love the amount of humor you've put in that I'm still being torn apart by the fact that ranks are not arranged AS I WANT THEM TO BE.

How would you like them arranged?

In a descending pattern.
Admin, Lower Admin, Even Lower admin, Not even admin, helper, etc.

I can't recall specifically... but usergroups are either alphabetical or ID sorted...

there is no option to change the display order of the groups

although, there may be a mod...

As that's so vague, you may have to manually play with $context['membergroups'] in your BoardIndex.template.php file, to get the required display order.

I hope there's a cure for OCD because I'm going for it. OR I'll just disable the group key.

The mod was removed from the SMF site but it is still available on the mod author's own site. Here is a link (look for Group Key Order and Style 1.1) http://www.burkeknight.com/smf.php

Just a head's up though that even though it should work, because it is not a mod on the SMF site, you would have to get support on the site you download it from.

Doesn't quite work. After first two administrative groups, it displays groups by post. Although in very good order, still not what I want.

Note: Found a way to cheat. Trying it. ( I edit numbers, reinstall and they appear. LOL. )

Edit: NAILED IT. OCD satisfied, it all works like charm now.

Thank you very much for that helping hand of yours. <3

As an OCD freak I hope you know that such ranking must be based on Pareto superiority of membergroup permission sets ::) If your permissions are not designed that way, you have to state an appropriate second order ranking criterion.
