Troubleshoot Player List Not Sorting Correctly

Common Sorting Issues

If your player list isn't displaying in your configured order, several factors might be preventing the mod from working properly.

Diagnostic Steps

1. Verify the config file exists — Check that the mod config file is in the correct location and hasn't been corrupted

2. Check syntax — Open the config file and look for formatting errors, missing brackets, or typos in criteria names

3. Confirm criteria availability — Ensure the sorting criteria you selected is actually supported by the mod and available on your server

4. Restart properly — Fully close and reopen your server or client; a simple reload may not apply all changes

5. Check for conflicts — If other mods manage player lists, they may conflict with this mod's ordering

6. Review permissions — If using permission-based sorting, verify that your permission plugin is installed and functioning

Reset if Needed

If problems persist, try resetting the config file to defaults and reconfiguring from scratch. This often resolves issues caused by incomplete edits or corrupted settings.
