    Default Re: Product Listing Default Sort Order

    I am having a bit of a different problem....I applied the fix for products to default to Newest to Oldest, however...This also ignored the product's sort orders.

    I need my product display to go by Product sort order, and if it's not specified on the products, to display newest to oldest.

    Can you sort by model number without displaying it in the product listing?
    Was it ever determined if this was possible?
    I have searched and haven't seen an answer.

    Nevermind. I would up configuring EasyPopulate to include the Sort Order field. It is a perfect work around.

It should be 1/7.... then if you click on Next you should see the Calendar which is the next product on the Product Listing page and according to the sort order, but you don't see the calendar. Any general or specific help would be appreciated, if you need to know more about various settings I can provide the information.

    Default Re: Product Listing Default Sort Order

    I'm still baffled too. I want the products to display lowest price first. When I click on the "price" on the bar in the actual website to display this order it says "page=1&sort=3a". So I thought, "excellent, I just need to add 3a to each products sort", but it doesn't remember the "a" bit, only the 3. I have searched the forums and have tried different paramaters, but still can't get it to work.

    Any ideas? I'm running 1.3.7 and fully patched

    Default Re: Product Listing Default Sort Order

    Well it appears that after updating to v1.3.9d this 'hack' for sort order does not work for me. I JUST went through in Easy Populate and redid the 'added on' date of every product to display it in the order I wanted, and now they are just showing up however they feel like.

    Default Re: Product Listing Default Sort Order

    Spent days trying to sort out this ...in includes/index_filters/default_filter.php comment out line 105:

    $listing_sql .= " order by p.products_sort_order, pd.products_name";

    and add the following:

    $listing_sql .= " order by p.products_date_added DESC, pd.products_name";

    Hope this helps!

    Thank you Ajeh!

    Your answer from 2008 helped me out today!
    In my case: Sort by price is 3a

    Thank you again :)

    The Sort Order is also determined by what your individual columns are in the Product Listing ...

    So your Model might be 1a but mine might be 4a ...

    The better way to know what to use is to go to the Product Listing on your site and click the headers until you are in the right order ... then, look in the URL for the &sort=#x and enter your #x for the sort order ...

    Default Re: Product Listing Default Sort Order

    admin/config/product listing/Product Listing Default Sort Order is blank

    Which means the sort value seen listed for each category controls the order listed on the page for that Category.

    Function confirmed.

    BUT

    Upon clicking to a product page, the order presented when clicking previous or next is not what I want. They are sorted alphabetically by Product Name.

    How to I match the prev/next order when looking at product pages to the listed order on the Category page?
