Manual Product Sorting on Product List Page in Ecommerce Stores

We are excited to introduce Manual Product Sorting, a new capability that gives store owners granular control over the order in which products appear on their store’s Product List Page. This enhancement improves visual merchandising by allowing high-priority products to be featured more prominently.

1. Display Priority Column

• A new column labelled “

  Display Priority

  ” has been added to the Product List page.

• Store owners can assign whole number values to each product to define its display priority.
• Lower numbers indicate higher priority (i.e., the product appears earlier in the list).

2. Alphabetical Tie-Breaker

• Products with the same priority value are sorted alphabetically (A-Z) as a secondary sort criterion.

3. Featured Sorting Option

• A new “

  Featured

  ” sorting option is now available in the builder.

• This option reflects the order based on assigned display priorities.
• For new store creations, “

  Featured

  ” is set as the default sorting method.

• Store owners can modify this default from the builder if necessary.

4. Validation & Input Handling

• Only whole numbers are accepted in the Display Priority field.
• Invalid entries (such as letters or decimal values) trigger error messages prompting correction.

5. User Interface & Experience

• Priority values can be manually saved via a “

  Save

  ” button which appears if any changes are made.

• Product order updates reflect immediately on the Product List Page.

1. Navigate to

   Sites > Stores > Select Store > Products

   .

2. Use the new

   Display Priority

   column to assign priority values (whole numbers only) to each product.

3. To apply sorting:

• Open the Product List page in the builder.
• Select the

  Product List

  element.

• In the

  Advanced Settings

  , choose Featured from the sort dropdown.

4. Click Save to publish the updated sorting order.
