Well, I guess not quite typical, but ....

I am recently finding managing sidebar plugins via admin interface to be more an obstacle than a benefit (clickelty up, clickety down, clickety left,...). And, especially, no way to try something and easily rollback if it does not work that well.

Is it possible to somehow migrate off this? I mean editing plugin locations directly inside template code.

Hi!

Sure. You can remove the {serendipity_printSidebar} command, and instead call every plugin manually through {serendipity_showPlugin}.

See http://s9y.org/78.html

You could also upgrade to a newer version of s9y. Newer versions have a click-and-drag to rearrange sidebar plugins behaviour. There is a video about it too:
