Hi there

am having an issue and it is not related to the naming of platforms and clear logos as i had seen similar happen to someone and for me it was a naming issue

i had a issue with this so i started over importing platforms and it was fine as i was going along i came across a issue with my arcade platform so i removed it and imported it again and created arcade playlists and the problem appeared again 

what happens is my arcade platform\playlist categories listed move any platforms i have made myself to the bottom of the list so its like the platform\playlist categories takes order priority over any custom made platforms 

so you end up with a split of arcade platform\playlists in alphabetical order then your custom made platforms in alphabetical order 

but in launchbox the list is sorted as you would like it with both custom made platforms and arcade platform\playlists combined and sorted in alphbetical order 

this has happened twice now using 2 different big box themes so its not theme related

first time i was using unified refried and now using colourful dark

I managed to resolve the issue 

after scanning through all my arcade platform edit window i noticed that all playlist in the arcade section on recreating had added the word Arcade infront of all the generated playlists for example 

Unique Name. Arcade Irem Classics
Nested Name. Irem Classics   

so bigbox was following the unique name and shifting everything to the top following Arcade so i changed it to 

Unique Name. Irem Classics
Nested Name. Irem Classics   

and everything now lists correctly in LB\BB

i hope this may help anyone else experiencing a naming problem and platform shift
