Sorry if this is a repeat question but I haven't been able to find an answer so far...

I have entered my option names and option values with sort orders, but when they appear on the products page, they are ordered by name instead of the sort order I specified. I found a couple of options under Configuration->Product Info but changing these makes no difference. Please help!

Also of some annoyance, when adding attributes to products, the option values are also sorted by name which makes it quite a jumbled list to be picking from, can I sort these by their option name?

Thanks,
Mitchell
If you use the Default Sort order on the Option Values, you can, after adding in your attributes, just hit the Update To Default Sort Order ...

On the listing of the Drop Down for the Option Value, currently the list is done by Option Name, Option Value

In a future update this will be changing to have just the Option Value for the selected Option Name showing to make this easier.

The advantage of the Default Sort order on the Option Values is that at any time you can update the whole store and have the values in the correct order.
