Pinned Modifiers is a Blender add-on written in Python that speeds up modeling work by letting you pin your most used modifiers directly to the Add Modifier menu, so you can add them with one click instead of searching through a long list every time. Inside the add-on preferences, you check off which modifiers you want pinned, then reorder them using simple up, down, and jump to top or bottom controls until the list matches how you like to work. Once set, your pinned modifiers show up right at the top of the Add Modifier menu inside the Modifiers tab. Your configuration is saved to a small JSON file in your user settings folder, so it survives restarts, add-on updates, and reinstalls. You can also export your setup to share it with another computer or restore it later, and there is a one click option to reset everything back to the defaults. The add-on works on Linux, Windows, and macOS, and supports Blender versions 4.3 through 5.1.1 and newer. It also works with Blender 4.2, though pinned Geometry Nodes based modifiers will not function correctly there because of a changed file path. Blender 3.6 LTS and earlier are not supported at all, since the add-on depends on the newer dynamic Add Modifier menu system that Blender introduced in version 4.0. Installation is done either by dragging the downloaded zip file straight into Blender, or by installing it manually through the Preferences menu under Add-ons. The project also includes build instructions for developers on Linux who want to validate and package the extension themselves using Blender's command line tools. It is licensed under GPL 3.0.
