How to Display Active Plugins First in WordPress?

Frequently Asked Questions

Why doesn’t WordPress sort active plugins by default?

Standard WordPress displays plugins alphabetically. While functional for a few tools, it becomes inefficient as your site grows. Nexter Extension adds this missing logic to prioritize your active tools for better accessibility.

Do I need another plugin just to sort my list?

You don’t need a dedicated, single-purpose plugin. Nexter Extension includes this as a lightweight module alongside dozens of other site-improving tools, helping you reduce your total plugin count.

Will this feature slow down my WordPress admin area?

No. This feature is built to be lightweight and only affects how the plugin list is displayed in the dashboard. It does not run on the front end, ensuring your site speed remains unaffected.

Is this suitable for agencies managing multiple client sites?

Yes. For agencies, time is the highest cost. Automatically sorting active plugins allows your team to jump into any site and immediately understand the active stack without manual searching or filtering.

What happens to my inactive plugins?

Your inactive plugins remain safely on your site; they are simply moved below the active ones. This keeps your workspace clean while ensuring you can still access or delete dormant plugins whenever you need to.

Can I disable this if I prefer the alphabetical view?

Yes. Because Nexter Extension is modular, you can toggle the "Display Active Plugins First" feature on or off. You only keep the enhancements you actually use, keeping your backend clean and fast.
