where or how can we define the modules load order priorities?

[horst]

Hey, hey! 🙋‍♂️

I remember that there is somewhere & somehow the possibility to define / change the loading priority of modules during the PW start procedure.
(Something from default 0 up to +100 or down -100, if I remember right?)
But where is it or how can we do this?

Please help me! 😇😄

You can apparently set autoload to any integer, the higher the earlier: https://github.com/processwire/processwire/blob/1b0d51e2751aec462b431fc736c3e16e6502c9aa/wire/core/Module.php#L218 Numbers >= 10000 (plus some other conditions) make it a “preload” module and move it up even before core modules.

Not sure if there’s a way to change the order of modules without modifying them.

Just a note that I set Tracy to 100000 so you'll want to make sure your highest one is still lower than that if you want to be able to use Tracy within other modules.
