I say this because i've split my main movies from the children's movies using smart playlists and adding them on the custom buttons but they my movies and cartoons buttons are at the bottom of my main menu. I'd like them in order if possible but can't see any option.
You can do it, it just requires some tinkering with the xml files. You may first want to backup your config files before editing them, and set up a button on your remote/keyboard to reload the skin in the event of something getting borked, as you'll be given just a black screen and the very top bar if there's any errors.
Edit the ~/.xbmc/addons/skin.transparency/720p/Includes_Home.xml file and find the following line if you use the vertical menu:
Code:
<include name="VerticalMenu">
Code:
<include name="HorizontalMenu">
Under this tag, you should have <item id="#"> lines. Simply cut & paste the full <item id="#"> to </item> lines and paste them where you want that particular menu item to appear. So just take the custom menu entries you created, and (this requires a little figuring out as to what is what, but it shouldn't be too hard) paste them above/below/between the existing menu items where ever you'd like to have them.
Best of luck!
