Am curious how to alphabetize this

[jmberman]

Attributes controller
my drop down list of products are in random order, but I want them to be alphabetized.
I thought maybe if I set the order of all products in the category by ABC it would fix the attributes controller list, but it doesn't.

[jmberman]

Fixed it... at the top of the attributes controller is a dropdown called Additional Actions, from there I simply chose: Update sort order to default.

Nevermind that didn't fix it

you should post your zen-cart version. hard to help without knowing that.

Sorry, 1.5.8

no worries.

you have found a bug! i'll look to fix it later today or tomorrow.

as an interim solution, you can change this line (891):

//from
                <div class="col-xs-8 col-sm-8 col-md-6 col-lg-4 text-center"><?php echo zen_draw_pulldown_products('products_filter', 'class="form-control"', '', true, $_GET['products_filter'], true, true); ?></div>
//to
                <div class="col-xs-8 col-sm-8 col-md-6 col-lg-4 text-center"><?php echo zen_draw_pulldown_products('products_filter', 'class="form-control"', '', true, $_GET['products_filter'], true, true, 'products_name'); ?></div>

please let me know if that does what you want.

best.

Yes that was perfect, thank you!

@jmberman

you can replace this 2 files with the hyperlinks contained here:

includes/classes/productPulldown.php

includes/functions/functions_categories.php

you can then revert your attributes controller to the original. and then you can control the sort via the config key of:

PRODUCT_INFO_PREVIOUS_NEXT_SORT

which should be on the product info configuration page or somewhere around here:

admin/index.php?cmd=configuration&gID=18

if you could test that for us, it would be most helpful.

best.

[jmberman]

Files replaced and controller reverted... trying now.

[jmberman]

Perfect. No issues so far.
