Option Value Sort Order - Attributes Controller Page Only

[dranet]

I have several download attributes that are sorted correctly in both the Option Name Manager and the Option Value Manager, using 110, 120, 130, etc. Yet when I look at the box for "Option Value" under "Adding New Attributes" page, they are out of order.

I have tried the "Update All Products' Attributes Sort Orders" update button and they are still out of order.

Everything on the product page looks great! This is happening only on the "Attributes Controller" page when I am adding new attributes to a product. But I also see it in the drop down menu for the "Option Value to match:" feature on the "Option Value Sorter" page.

Again, I don't see any problem on the product page, and the "Option Name" list on the Attributes page is sorted correctly.



This isn't a big problem, but a big inconvenience when I am adding a whole bunch of products. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

This module changes the way the dropdown select fields work on the Attributes Controller Page.
The content of the second dropdown (option values) is now dependant upon the content of the first dropdown (option names), so you will only see values that apply to the selected option name. Javascript is used to avoid having the page reload when you make that selection in the first box.

Here's the major time saver: the second box (option values) allows multiple selections!
So you can add a whole bunch of option values with a single page load!

I have the same problem and have the upgraded attributes controller. I have 300 colors and without sorting them alphabetically I will be here all day.

Any thoughts?

Did you guys ever figure this out? I'm having the exact same problem and it's very frustrating!

We are unsuccessful in Updating option value sort orders from the "Option Value Manager" page.

We use around 75 Option Values on one product and have around 150 products in a Category.

We tried using the Option Value Sort update 'Category Wise', we get a blank page result and probably some of the option values are updated and rest not.

Using the 'Product Wise' update will work however we do add option values regularly and doing it manually for 150 products each time is not the smart way to do it.

Please let us know how can we achieve this.

If anyone can suggest a way to do this where I may need to create a new module I am ready to do so by a paid developer.

This is really important for us.

Typo on the above post:

We used Option Value Sorter and not Option Value Manager.

When you get the blank page, what debug logs do you see in your:
/cache

directory on the server?

Hi Ajeh,
Thanks for looking into this.

My developer made some changes to the module , he just told me "used one sqlscript to update sort order instead of programming loop" and it works great.
Don't know what he did as it's too technical for me.

Hi Harry 2 cool,


I have just upgraded from 1.38a to 1.39h, and We are also unsuccessful in Updating option value sort orders from the "Option Value Manager" page. I would like to know sqlscript to update sort order instead of programming loop" that you are talking about is there a way that i could also use it too.
Can you or anyone help me with this I believe it gets sorted right now alphabetically however, Option Name Manager and the Option Value Manager sort order looks great. Yet when I look at the box for "Option Value" under "Adding New Attributes" page, they are out of order.

Hi,
I do not know the technicality's however my developer did make this work for me and has made my life a lot easier.
I can share the files too however not sure if he did any SQL patch.
