I've gotten a cycle error before without touching plugins at all, so its not necessarily OP trying to work against Vortex and manually change plugin load order. Open the hyperlink contained in the error pop-up, it will display a map of the mods involved in the cycle with arrows showing the relationships. You should be able to pinpoint the problem there and can actually just flip the offending relationship(s) there. Thats been my experience at least. Had it come up a few times around R's Farmhouse specifically with some other mods.
