How to re-sort or re-order frames in layer panel to export for presentation?

Hi! Sorry if I just can’t find an existing article, but I have a hiccup in my process for my presentation slides.

It’s tough to add and remove slides, cause the layer panel gets messed up when you duplicate or add a new slide frames, since I already batch renamed and reordered +40 slides before I had to make changes.

Is there an easier way to reorder the frames in the layer panel so I can more easily rename them properly when I need to export them to images in proper order?

This isn’t a problem for presenting in Figma (top to bottom and left to right on canvas works just fine)…but creates an issue if I need to image archive the deck or in my case now I have to add this deck to a powerpoint that is aggregating with existing decks and having them out of order makes it really difficult when changes come down the pipeline.

Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion! I tested it with blank frames, worked like a charm, tried it with my deck file (an even reset all the artboard names) but it didn’t quite work

I did search in plugins and found this one called Sorter, worked like a charm and has lots of options!

For my usecase, the first option (sort position) did the trick
