    Default Sort by Price - Where is it?

    Hi all,

    New to Zencart and one simple question that I cannot figure out for the life of me. I want our viewers to sort products by price. High to Low, or Low to High.

    Is there a simple way to do that?

    Thanks
    KP

    They should be able to click on Price in the product listing header.

    Well, how does one set that up? It doesn't appear to be in Zencart.
    I checked the showcase of zencart sites. http://www.zen-cart.com/showcase.php. I checked about 10 sites and none contained a "sort by price". Let's just take the default Zencart install.

    http://theplaypages.com/demoplay/ ....... Again, it's not there. If it is, I am asking, how do you set that up in Admin. I don't see it anywhere.

    This is the site I want to add the ability to sort by price. If I knew where it was in the default Zencart, I have a chance of adding it to my real site. I would prefer a sort by "Low to High" or "High to Low" but would settle with a default sort by "Low to High"

    Peek at this page on your site:
    /demoplay/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=3_10

    See where the column of Prices are under the word: Price

    Click on the word: Price

    and the column now sorts by Price (low to high) ... click the word Price again and it sorts the other way (high to low) ...

    The other titles work the same way ...

    If you want to make the function more apparent to your visitors, you can change the indicator from the default +/- in
    Configuration > Product Listing >
    Product Listing Ascending Sort Order +
    Product Listing Descending Sort Order -


    You can also set the default sort order in
    Display Product Listing Default Sort Order

    Default Re: Sort by Price - Where is it?

    Thank you everyone. It looks like the theme doesn't include that column header for price.
    http://theplaypages.com/

    But I am looking for is how do you set that up in Admin. My problem to show the header, but where do I set is up. Even in the sidebar would be good.

    So gjh42, says it is under Product Listing, but this sorts by Product Name.

    So, under this item, I placed the word Price
    Product Listing Descending Sort Order
    What do you want to use to indicate Sort Order Descending?
    Default = -

    I entered "Price" and it did not work.

    So, to be clear, how does one set the default setting to sort by Price ( ASC or DESC ). And, is there a way to place in Sidebar, Sort Low to High, or High to Low. Maybe even have a drop down.

    Less than $25.00
    25 -50.00
    50.00 - 75.00
    75.00- 100.00
    Over 100

    I know I can't be the first person to ask this question.
    Thanks
    Karen
