Drag and drop to reorder reports on any Matomo report page. Each user saves their own custom layout, independently of other users. Works on all standa.
ReportSorter lets every Matomo user arrange the reports on any standard subcategory page in whatever order works best for them — without touching Matomo configuration or affecting other users.
A ↕ Sort reports button appears on every standard report page (e.g. Visitors → Locations, Acquisition → Channels, Behaviour → Pages). Click it, drag the reports into your preferred order in the pop-up dialog, then click Save order. The page reloads with your custom layout. Each user has a completely independent ordering, so your preferences never interfere with a colleague's view.
Custom ordering is stored per user and per subcategory page. It is applied at page render time by adjusting widget display order, so it is fully compatible with all standard Matomo report pages.
Does this affect other users? No. Each user's report ordering is stored and applied independently. Activating or deactivating the plugin has no effect on other users' views beyond whether the Sort button is shown.
Does it work on dashboard pages?
No. ReportSorter targets standard subcategory report pages (the ones with .reporting-page in the DOM). Dashboards have their own separate widget management interface built into Matomo.
What happens if I deactivate the plugin? Reports return to Matomo's default ordering immediately. Saved preferences are kept in the database. If you reactivate the plugin, all users' saved orderings are restored.
What happens if I uninstall the plugin?
The plugin's database table (matomo_report_sorter_order) is dropped and all saved orderings are permanently deleted.
Is there a limit on how many pages I can customise? Yes — 500 subcategory pages per user, which is far more than the number of report pages that exist in a standard Matomo installation. This limit exists as a safeguard against runaway data growth.
Does this work with custom plugins that add reports?
Yes, as long as the custom plugin renders standard Matomo widgets (.matomo-widget elements with a unique ID) on a standard report subcategory page.
