Change the order of local tasks

my_module.module

function my_module_local_tasks_alter(&$local_tasks) {
  if (isset($local_tasks['entity.section_library_template.collection'])) {
    $local_tasks['entity.section_library_template.collection']['weight'] = 110;
  }
    
  if (isset($local_tasks['feeds.admin'])) {
    $local_tasks['feeds.admin']['weight'] = 120;
  }

}

Issue:

You are dissatisfied with the order of the local tasks (tabs) and want to rearrange them. If you have a view with multiple displays, it is easy to reorder the tabs by adjusting the order of the view displays. In my case, I have different views that provide the tabs for routes starting with "/admin/content".

Solution:

Change the weight of the local tasks. In my example, I have the the Layout Builder Library and the Feeds module installed. I chose these two to explain where you can find the local task you need to adjust the weight.

For the Feeds module, we needed to look up where the route "admin/content/feed" is defined. We will find it inside the routing.yml file of the module. It is defined under feeds.admin.

The Layout Builder Library Module defines the route we are looking for (admin/content/section-library) in the annotation of the entity. The route name can be found in the links.task.yml file. It is defined as entity.[entity_id].[link].

ECA.php

// web/modules/contrib/eca/src/Entity/Eca.php (simplified excerpt)

protected function isValidationDisabled(): bool {
  return $this->request()->query->get('eca_validation', '') === 'off';
}

public function getPluginCollections(): array {
  if ($this->isValidationDisabled()) {
    return [];
  }
  // Otherwise every referenced event/condition/action plugin is
  // instantiated here, throwing PluginNotFoundException if one
  // of them no longer exists.
  ...
}
