In case someone needs it, there is way to sort the badges inside a single Badge-Group.

You need to add more rows to the table “badge\_types”. Lower Id’s will be sorted to the end of the list.  
Lets say you need to sort 5 Badges in one Badge-Group (they are from the table badge\_groupings). You could edit the table “badge\_types” as follow:

- row-id 1: name “Diamond”
- row-id 2: name “Platin”
- row-id 3: name “Gold”
- row-id 4: name “Silver”
- row-id 5: name “Bronze”

Then set your badges to the type you want. They will be displayed from Bronze → Diamond on the /badges and /users/[username]/badges page.
