我最近试图通过编写插件对仪表板小部件进行重新排序。我做到了这一点：

<?php
/*
 * Plugin Name: Custom Dashboard
 * Description: Custom dashboard for Avare sites.
 * Author: Avare
 * Version: 1.0
 */

function sort_dashboard_widgets() {

 $left_column_widgets[] = \'dashboard_right_now\';
 $left_column_widgets[] = \'dashboard_recent_comments\';
 $left_column_widgets[] = \'dashboard_incoming_links\';

 $right_column_widgets[] = \'dashboard_quick_press\';
 $right_column_widgets[] = \'dashboard_recent_drafts\';
 $right_column_widgets[] = \'dashboard_primary\';
 $right_column_widgets[] = \'dashboard_secundary\';

// Global the $wp_meta_boxes variable (this will allow us to alter the array)
global $wp_meta_boxes;

// We then unset that part of the array
unset($wp_meta_boxes[\'dashboard\'][\'normal\'][\'core\']);
unset($wp_meta_boxes[\'dashboard\'][\'side\'][\'core\']);

// Then we make a backup of the widget areas
$left_dashboard = $wp_meta_boxes[\'dashboard\'][\'normal\'][\'core\'];
$right_dashboard = $wp_meta_boxes[\'dashboard\'][\'side\'][\'core\'];

// Then we merge them in some sort of way (is this necessary?)
$sorted_left_dashboard = array_merge((array)$left_column_widgets, (array)$left_dashboard);
$sorted_right_dashboard = array_merge((array)$right_column_widgets, (array)$right_dashboard);

// Now we add the sorted widgets back in
$wp_meta_boxes[\'dashboard\'][\'normal\'][\'core\'] = $sorted_left_dashboard;
$wp_meta_boxes[\'dashboard\'][\'side\'][\'core\'] = $sorted_right_dashboard;

}

add_filter(\'wp_dashboard_setup\', \'sort_dashboard_widgets\');

干杯
