SmartSort

by alakaiigaming · on Modrinth

Smart inventory and chest sorting plugin. Free Minecraft Java mod for 1.21, 1.21.1, 1.21.2.

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.21.1–1.21.11 · Paper⬇ Download for 1.21.2–1.21.11 · Purpur⬇ Download for 1.21.2–1.21.11 · Spigot⬇ Download for 1.21.2–1.21.10 · Bukkit
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

SmartSort:

Inventory sorting done right. Shift+right-click an empty slot to sort, or use commands if you're in Creative mode.

How It Works:

Shift+Right-Click on any empty slot:

Commands for when clicking won't cut it:

Creative mode players need to use commands since Minecraft doesn't let plugins detect shift+clicks properly in the Creative inventory. Chests still work fine with clicking though.

Sorting Logic:

Items get grouped into categories (weapons, tools, armor, food, blocks, etc.) and then sorted alphabetically within each category. Similar items stack automatically.

Permissions:

Keep it simple with smartsort.use for full access, or get specific:

smartsort.inventory.sort     - just their inventory
smartsort.containers.sort    - all containers
smartsort.containers.chest   - only chests
smartsort.containers.barrel  - only barrels
smartsort.containers.shulkerbox
smartsort.containers.enderchest
smartsort.containers.hopper
smartsort.containers.dispenser
smartsort.containers.dropper

Works great for tiered ranks - give free players inventory sorting, members get chests, VIPs get everything.

The plugin checks smartsort.use first, so existing setups keep working.
