I've explicitly set block weights in admin/build/block/ and placed two blocks in the same region using two separate contexts (one dependent on node type, the other on user). The block weights are ignored, even after renaming the contexts to include a number or letter prefix to exploit the alphabetical ordering of contexts. I'm a bit lost for what else to do...Any tips?

Similar issue. If you have two contexts that contain blocks and both conditions are triggered which namespace (group of blocks) will appear first?

You can control the order of blocks within the namespace by dragging them but I don't see a way to weight the contexts and thereby set the order of namespaces. If I always want a certain groups of blocks to appear at the top, how can I do it?

From #789782: Way to Weight Blocks that Show From Multiple Contexts

"Contexts are ordered alphabetically" - so it appears that they are "weighted" in alphabetical order -

Context does not support weight values set on admin/build/block.

If you need to order blocks from multiple contexts on a given page, please use the context inline editor. See README.txt in context_ui.
