how do you rearrange the order? I only see options to show/hide

The Customizable Sidebar plugin does not allow you to reorder anything. The Obsidian Bartender plugin, which you linked to, does.

The Customizable Sidebar plugin does allow you to change order of custom commands. I’ve implemented the feature myself.
Please read my original comment again - you first need to hide all auto-added commands and then add your own commands that can be reordered with arrow buttons. You also need to have up-to-date version of the plugin.

Thanks for adding that detail. As far as I’m aware, most people in this thread are looking to customize the order of anything in the sidebar, not just custom commands added by the Customizable Sidebar plugin. For that, Obsidian Bartender is still the recommendation.

I think you misunderstood. You can customize order of any commands. You just need to add them to the sidebar myself and hide original commands, but in the end they look and are practically the same.

For my use-case, I use both plugins together to achieve different but harmonious things.

I use Customizable-Sidebar to hide things that I do not want & to add custom commands.

I use Obsidian-Bartender to rearrange icons in the sidebar with quick and simple drag-and-drop functionality, without the need to open the plugin settings to rearrange (as is the case with Customizable-Sidebar), or, as you recommended, having to remove all sidebar icons first and readding them afterwards so that they can be rearranged. Perhaps that makes sense for someone who wants to start fresh and re-add only what they want, one by one, whereas for me, I wanted most of what I had in the sidebar, I just needed easy functionaility to rearrange them.

Bartender is a good idea, but it is pretty buggy. It does not like to move files around. Folders fare better, but I named one folder Index and tried to move it up. It leaves a pixel remnant but goes back where it came from. Definitely beta.

Normally when you drag it only wants you to drop one item inside another folder. This is the behavior I am getting but only for some folders. For example I have a folder named Indexes and as I move it, it only shows "move into folder xyz’. If I move it to the top it will ‘land’ but then it leaves a pixel remnant and goes back where it came from.

sure, I think I also need it.
