I have several libraries named #1, #8, #5, #7 , #6 etc. I”d like to reorder them as follows: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, etc.

Thanks.

That’s usually a per-client configuration/customization.

Thanks for your reply. But I meant reordering libraries in Plex settings, please see screenshot:

Aren’t those sorted alphabetically (01 < 03 < 04 < 05 < 06 < 20 < 30)?
From what I remember, they might be grouped by library type, then their title.

Oh, I see now, yes, they are grouped by type, that’s right.
It therefore doesn’t seem possible to change this behavior, or does it?

No, it’s not – keep in mind, that’s just the library administration. That order has nothing to do with how the libraries are presented in a client.

Indeed. Thank you very much again tom80H.
