Previously, when Tributes was managed under Features, we could change the order in which tributes appeared on a classic item by adjusting the sequence in the Tributes settings. However, this option doesn’t seem to be available now.

Currently, the only workaround to display tributes in a specific order on classic items is to remove and re-add the tribute (in org settings), as the order appears to be based on the creation date- which is much more cumbersome.
