Hello

 

I don't think there is a possibility to solve this problem via a parameter.  Maybe @ahoeben could give a more accurate answer. 

The execution of the plugins follow I think the order of loading and the order of loading is according to the alphabetical order 

 

First there are the plugins loaded in :

<Software>Ultimaker\Ultimaker Cura XXX\share\cura\plugins     so  PostProcessingPlugin   in the first place

 

Then the plugins in :  <User>AppData\Roaming\cura\XXX\plugins   like  LinearAdvanceSettingPlugin or ArcWelderPlugin etc .

 

So if you want to modify this order you can move  the Folder  PostProcessingPlugin   into the User plugins directory or move the LinearAdvanceSettingPlugin into the Software plugins directory .   As on a alphabetic order LinearAdvanceSettingPlugin  will be loaded before PostProcessingPlugin   you will get the right order but it's just a workaround  and you will have to do it for every new Cura Installation.

Note : If you want to use the postprocessing Script after the linear Advance it's certainly because you want to modify the code generate by the Linear Advance . In this case the best solution would be to modifiy the linearAdvance plugin or send a [Feature Request] to @ahoeben

Not without modifying code.
