rearrange channel tabs
Is it possible to rearrange tabs under a channel?

We understand that the current ability to rearrange tabs does not include files and posts. The feature team is reviewing the ask.

We need the ability to put Files tab before the Posts tab to assist in ADA User Friendliness. Example: I have a user with a disability and is unable to use a mouse so has to use the keyboard in place of a mouse for everything. Have You ever had to manipulate everything on a computer with only a keyboard? It takes more keyboard strokes to get to the files tab since we can't set it to be the default tab to open. If we could switch the posts and files tabs, the files tab could become default and assist in ADA User Friendliness.

I would love to be able to arrange the tabs to fit my classroom setting. Right now I am not using a class notebook but have a lab program my students need to access more readily. I would prefer to list that closer to first.

Agree, we need to be able to arrange tabs according to our company's specific needs -- that's the premise behind being a more user-friendly and good-for-business platform.
Companies have different needs and use their channels for different reasons -- not everyone wants to use each channel like it's an AOL chatroom...

This would be really great to be able to choose the Files Tab as the default tab. It seems simple but we are all having to click every time on file tab once it loads on the Posts tabs. I know its only one more click but our team uses it all day and have to get in and out constantly. its just that many more clicks and it loading all day every day. Thanks

Please give teams owners the ability to choose with tabs shows first and the orders!

Have voted as I would also see a benefit to be able to move a tab before files and posts

Please please get this under development. Teams is useless as a collaboration tool without it. Especially the ability to make sure people land on the Planner tab when they click on a channel - what use is Teams as a project/planning tool without this facility? Chat posts are not always the most important thing for a Team and can actually be quite distracting or counterproductive!

Please consider a change to the tab order from Posts and Files then any added tabs. My suggestion is that a Team owners would be given the rights to change the tab order from original format that orders Posts and Files first then subsequently added tabs, to a tab order of alphabetic order. So there would be limiting tabs to always have Posts and Files but then if the Teams owner's preference was to see a different tab first then they would add a tab with a character that would order the preferred tab first.

Teachers make beautiful bitmoji classrooms, but can't feature them.because they can't be first in a Teams channel as the initial tab. Users have to find the tab, rather than being greeted by the tab wih the hyperlink.doc.

We need the ability to add a custom tab as.the 1st tab people see, not posts, so when the channel.opems, we can have something set up (like Buncee)/which includes or important descriptions and hyperlinks to whatever we need --plus hyperlinks to the various channels within the team.

Only posts and files are visible by default in the Desktop view on my Mac. Everything else is collapsed and not discoverable by other people. Priority here will help with transparency.

my lowest priority is the chat tab, I need the files tab to default as first.
I waste so many clicks going to the files tab after it opens on chat tab.sucks for engineers

Please do allow the Home/Sharepoint site to be the landing page/First tab. Posts works for many applications, but for other applications it just makes more sense to open at the Home/Sharepoint site.

Why not include the files or posts tab? I have a user who wants a tab to a SharePoint site to precede posts.

I agree with others. Our city is moving to Teams and our agency organizes files (tabs) multiple ways. We need the ability to move the tabs into different orders based on case number, criticality, etc.

I would very much like to have my "Daily Agenda" tab that I created be the first "landing page" that opens up when the kids enter Teams. Is this possible? If not, this REALLY needs to be fixed! Is this coming up in a future improvement? We as teachers really need to be able to rearrange these tabs to fit the flow of what we would like. I do not like that the "Posts" tab is what comes up first. My 2nd graders will get nothing important from seeing this first. Thank you.
