    Default Removing "sort by" dropdown menu filter

    Hi,

    I was able to customize most of the features from admin,
    but I can't seem to remove the "sort by" dropdown menu filter from my "New Products" and "Featured Product" page.

    Is there a way I can do this from admin?

    Thanks,

    Susan

    The following image is what I'm referring to.
    I don't have an URL because I haven't purchased a domain name yet and working on a local server.



    Thanks,

    If there is a switch I can not find it right now but ###### this to your stylesheet.css
    Code:
    #sorter {
            display: none;
            }

    admin/Configuration/Product Listing...
    set Include Product Listing Alpha Sorter Dropdown to false

    Not sure if this works for featured and new product listings.

    I appreciate the neat tip.
    I initially did an override by going into tpl_featured_products_default.php and removing the following lines. It did the trick, but I didn't know if it was a good idea to override my template.
    PHP Code:
    <?php
      
    /**
       * require code to display the list-display-order dropdown
       */
      
    require($template->get_template_dir('/tpl_modules_listing_display_order.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE$current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_listing_display_order.php'); 
    ?>

    Rob,

    I had tried that but it only removed the dropdown menu from my category listing and not from "New Products" and "Featured Products". Thanks anyway.

    If doing this and using the override system then you are doing it exactly correctly....
