Locate in the following directory:
includes/templates/template_default/templates

Look for the following file:
tpl_modules_listing_display_order.php

Toward the bottom of that file, you'll find the following code:

<option value="1" <?php echo ($disp_order == '1' ? 'selected="selected"' : ''); ?>><?php echo TEXT_INFO_SORT_BY_PRODUCTS_NAME; ?></option>

<option value="2" <?php echo ($disp_order == '2' ? 'selected="selected"' : ''); ?>><?php echo TEXT_INFO_SORT_BY_PRODUCTS_NAME_DESC; ?></option>

<option value="3" <?php echo ($disp_order == '3' ? 'selected="selected"' : ''); ?>><?php echo TEXT_INFO_SORT_BY_PRODUCTS_PRICE; ?></option>

<option value="4" <?php echo ($disp_order == '4' ? 'selected="selected"' : ''); ?>><?php echo TEXT_INFO_SORT_BY_PRODUCTS_PRICE_DESC; ?></option>

<option value="5" <?php echo ($disp_order == '5' ? 'selected="selected"' : ''); ?>><?php echo TEXT_INFO_SORT_BY_PRODUCTS_MODEL; ?></option>

<option value="6" <?php echo ($disp_order == '6' ? 'selected="selected"' : ''); ?>><?php echo TEXT_INFO_SORT_BY_PRODUCTS_DATE_DESC; ?></option>

<option value="7" <?php echo ($disp_order == '7' ? 'selected="selected"' : ''); ?>><?php echo TEXT_INFO_SORT_BY_PRODUCTS_DATE; ?></option>

Just comment out the options that you do not want. Remember to comment out the html and the php code.

Hope that helps

Be careful ... that is a shared module with other pages ...

You can customize the template not to call that module as a better method ...

Linda, I want the opposite. I want the "Sort by" drop down to show on all of my subcat and product pages. Currently it only show on the "All products" pages.

The files are totally different ...

I am thinking that someone went through and adapted a Product Listing so that it could use the dropdown, but I do not recall where that might be ...

[micmed]

Which files are different?

Right now if you choose "Featured Products" or All Products" you will get the "Sort by" drop down at the top of the page. I just want that to show whenever you choose any other category.

Is that possible?

[Ajeh]

The products listing is created in a different manner than the Featured Listing, New Products Listing and All Products Listing ...

So these 3 use a different method to sort, via the dropdown ...

The Product Listing is using the headings of the displayed fields ...

You would need to do quite a bit of customization to be able to utilize the Dropdown for the Sort Order on the Product Listing ...

I found this partial solution from yellow1912:

At least I have it on the products listing now.

Thanks for your help.

I have a similar question - how can I change the default sort order for "All Products" to "Model"?

[Ajeh]

If you peek in the Configuration ... All Listing ... you will see a setting for the different default sort orders:

Display Product Display - Default Sort Order
What Sort Order Default should be used for All Products Display?
Default= 1 for Product Name

1= Products Name
2= Products Name Desc
3= Price low to high, Products Name
4= Price high to low, Products Name
5= Model
6= Date Added desc
7= Date Added
8= Product Sort Order
