Sorting by Price in Categories?

Hello! I'm trying to sort my items on the category pages by price (low to high) but I can't quite figure out how to do it. While there's an option to sort by price than name in the Admin, that translates only to the Admin listings and not to the Category pages in the store. Can anyone let me know a way to have the categories default to be sorted be price, low to high?

Re: Sorting by Price in Categories?

Just figured it out myself. For others, go under Configuration -> Product Listings -> Display Product Listing Default Sort Order.

Pick the column you want to sort by (1,2,3, etc) and whether you want to do ascending or descending (a or d). For me, price was my 4th column and I wanted to sort ascending so I entered '4a'.

Not very intuitive, but it works.

Thanks for the update that you can set the Sort Order to default to one of your selected fields of data ... glad you got it working now! :smile:
