Description

Channel Order is a tiny, zero-config tool for WoW Classic Era that lets you reorder your chat channel numbers.

Joined General, Trade and LookingForGroup in the "wrong" order? Is /3 Trade on one character and /2 on another? Instead of leaving and rejoining channels until the numbers line up, open Channel Order, move the channel names up and down, and click Set Order.

How it works

  • Type /chanorder (or /channelorder) to open the window
  • The numbers on the left stay fixed; use the up/down arrows to move channel names into the slot you want
  • Click Set Order to apply. The addon uses the game's own channel-swap function, so you never leave a channel
  • Refresh re-reads your channel list; Escape closes the window
  • If your channel list changes while the window is open (zoning changes the General channel, joining or leaving a channel) the addon notices and asks you to arrange again rather than applying a stale order

Features

  • Draggable window in the standard Blizzard dialog style
  • No libraries, no options panel, no saved variables, one Lua file
  • Works on any character, any number of channels

Commands

  • /chanorder or /channelorder — open/close the window

Made for Classic Era (Interface 11509). Part of a family of minimal addons alongside XPMeter, MoveSpeed and ImbueCheck.
