Sort product categories

  • Updated

Use Category Product Sorting in Optimizely Configured Commerce to see a comprehensive view of a website's hierarchy and set sort priority for products in each category. If you set sort priority, products are sorted descending by the highest value within a category. If you do not set sort priority, products are ascending alphabetically.

Set product sort priority

  1. Go to Admin Console > Catalog > Category Product Sorting
  2. Select a website from the drop-down list to choose which website to View by Category.

  4. Select a category or subcategory to view products assigned to it.
  5. Click the Edit icon next to a product to edit the product's sort priority. Products sort descending by highest value within a category. For example, 7 shows first, 6 shows second, 5 shows third, and so on.
