Reordering Tabs in the Evolution CMS Manager with ManagerManager

Tab order looks minor until editors repeat the same task hundreds of times. Then a small manager tweak can remove a lot of friction.

The old request here was simple: change the order of tabs in the manager so more important panels appear first. That is exactly the kind of small UX improvement ManagerManager was good at.

Why Tab Order Matters

editors reach important fields faster
SEO or content tabs can be promoted when they matter most
less-used tabs can be moved out of the primary editing path

What This Reflects

Good manager customization is rarely about visual novelty. It is about reducing routine friction. Reordering tabs is a small change, but on a busy site it can improve the daily editing workflow significantly.

Practical Advice

If several managers use the same form daily, optimize the order around real workflow, not around the default tab sequence that happened to ship with the build.
