Jenkins - order of tabs on the main page

Question

Is there any way (or plugin) to arrange tabs on Jenkins homepage? By default, they are sorted alphabetically. Only the information I found is no, but it's pretty old:

Answer 1

I was looking for a plugin that allows me to sort tabs manually a couple of weeks ago. I did not find anything. Therefore, I am pretty sure that there is still no answer.

As a workaround, we use a prefix like "(0) Viewname A", "(1) Viewname B", etc. to access the most important views with one click.

Answer 2

You can add a script to Jenkins so it will load every time the view opens. Go to: Manage Jenkins-> Configure System-> JS Theme URL and add a script. I used the following script:

sessionStorage["ts_direction::" + window.location.toString() +"::0"] = "type=string&value=3%3Aup" 

This arranges the columns by the fourth column (remember that this will affect all views!).

You can try the Nested View Plugin (a functional plugin based on the hudson.model.TreeView class ), which allows you to group task views into several levels instead of one large list of tabs.

Alternatively prefix names with numbers (e.g. 1-Foo , 2-Bar , 3-Baz , etc.).
