Product Sorting in Categories

ElasticSuite allows you to sort the products of a category via a drag-and-drop editor.

How to.

On a category edit page, you can access the Merchandising tab. Please not this tab only appear on existing categories. You will not see the Merchandising tab when creating a category.

You will see the Preview and sorting fieldset. This fieldset appears also on "standard" categories but also on the Virtual categories

Preview and sorting

Please note that each product displayed in the preview features an Automatic sort/ Manual sort switch :

  • Automatic Sort : This is the default value. Product will be sort by the standard Magento system.
  • Manual Sort : By putting a product in this mode, it will be automatically pushed to the top of the list. Then, products that are in Manual sort mode can be re-sorted among them, by drag-and-dropping them in the desired order. This is a replacement of the Magento's "position" column in the "Category products" tab.

Demo

You can see a short example on the gif below :

  • Setting some products to Manual Sort
  • And then ordering them.
