Can I reorder categories in the sidebar?

In the sidebar in the 1Password app v7 on High Sierra, I can't find how to re-organise the categories. I thought this used to be possible, and the current order makes no sense to me when I'm looking for something. Screenshot is failing to upload. Current order is:

Logins
Secure Notes
Credit Cards
Identities
Passwords
Documents

etc etc. How do I change these so they're at least in alphabetical order?

    Hi @codeknight, It's not possible to manually sort those, but I'll let the team know that's something you'd like us to add in the future.

    Thanks. It just seems weird that there's a pre-set order that isn't alphabetical.

    The order of the top 5 or 6 categories (6 in your case) is pre-defined as they are the most commonly used categories, and then everything below that is sorted alphabetically. It wouldn’t make much sense in our minds for Logins to be below Driver Licenses, for example, when Logins are the primary function of 1Password.

    I can understand the top 5 but, regardless, what's wrong with being able to change them for ourselves?

    @JamesHenderson: I don't think anyone is suggesting there's a "right" or "wrong". Being able to ordering them is a personal preference some have expressed. But in a world where many of us have multiple vaults, how does that work? If you have them in one order in one vault, and another in a different one, how does that get reconciled in All Vaults? That's just the tip of the iceberg.

    @brenty - yes, that's a fair point - you could have led with that :+1:

    It isn't simple, but perhaps we'll find a good solution in the future. Thanks for caring. :)
