diu1so Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 so, there is a way to sort products in categories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocky Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 You should be able to just go to Preferences > Products, set "Default order by" to "Position inside category", then go to the Catalog tab, then use the up or down arrows in the Position column to adjust the order of the products. You can click an arrow to move it one position, or click and drag the background behind the arrow up or down to move it multiple positions at a time. You can increase the number of displayed products from "50" to "300" if you need to move products many positions. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizbit Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Hi Rocky, How about a quick way to sort these in the BACK end by product name without having to use the tally up/down buttons? I have several photos that are numbered. Do I need to move these around by the onesies? or is there a quick button to sort? I tried clicking on the button at the top to sort, but nothing changes.Thanks!J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocky Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 To sort in products by name in the Back Office, click on the up arrow underneath the Name header. To sort the products by name in the Front Office, go to Preferences > Products and change "Default order by" to "Product name" and "Default order way" to ascending.

glenwheeler Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 can you move an item up and down one at a time?i It seems pretty useless. It doesnt work like I thought it would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codegrunt Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 The admin interface lets you adjust ordering but at least with version 1.3.3, it looks like the AJAX based controls do not work - you need to use the up down arrows which actually trigger a form submit. Just dragging and dropping rows does not seem to actually cause an update of the backend and there is no manual way to tell Prestashop that you are done either.This also assumes you have set the default ordering via the preferences -> products section as outlined above.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miss-d Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I'm looking for a way to multi-sort products by manufacturer in the backoffice - is there any way or module (also paid modules) which lets me mass-sort let's say "put all products of manufacturer X on top in category X"? Thanks for ANY hint/help!! ...tried Prestashop Storemanager but it won't let me mass-move certain manufactuerer either.. or at least I haven't figured out how.

robdido Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I spent ages wondering how to do this but hten found that when your in the "Catalog" tab you need to click on "Filter by category" at the top and then choose your catagory and then the arrows/drag option comes up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Soul Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 (edited) Hi, I am trying to control the order of my products in my categories on a multistore Prestashop 1.6 install. I follow your steps but it partially bugs : selecting a category make another category name appear as a filter at the top of the "Category" column of the main table ... I'm not sure what I am doing when the 2 do not match !! When they do and I reorder the products it seems to be partially respected... Anyone know how this weird thing works ?... ________________________________________________________________ EDIT : It works as it is supposed to on my install . I had an FTP problem causing interferences all around ... Multistore was for nothing in my bug Edited October 21, 2015 by Rom Soul (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdido Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) I also found another thing that you have to do before you move your product position up or down using arrows in the catogory is to disable the item first, then move it, then re-enable it So before you start moving it up and down, click on the green tick to disable it, then move it up or down and then re-enable it Edited October 21, 2015 by robdido (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javi Ferrer Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Hi there, Do you know how to reorder multiple products at same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerotexextintores Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I have the same problem. A change the order off the product A to 1st, but when I go to product page, continue on 2st position. Please, anyone have the solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loe- Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 You should be able to just go to Preferences > Products, set "Default order by" to "Position inside category", then go to the Catalog tab, then use the up or down arrows in the Position column to adjust the order of the products. You can click an arrow to move it one position, or click and drag the background behind the arrow up or down to move it multiple positions at a time. You can increase the number of displayed products from "50" to "300" if you need to move products many positions. This doesnt helps for me. PRudcts arestill displayed with no logic or just by date. Eveyrthing in BO is sorted as it should be. Anyone knows what can i do more? using ps 1.6.1.8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone knows what can i do more? using ps 1.6.1.8. Hello, When you are in your product manager page, there is a row with one option named : Filter by category (I translated it from my french version, this might be slightly different) Once you selected the category that contains your products, you will see that the products table now show a new column named Position. Use the arrows to drag and drop in the order you want them to appear. Also be sure you you have Preferences > Products, set "Position inside category" as said earlier (7 years ago ) Edited January 13, 2017 by ARNAUD DE SAINT JEAN (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoFenice Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Hi, We are using PS 1.6.17 for one of our client with multistore and having issues with product sorting using category filter. Checked category_product table and found the positions are repeated for a same category. The positions are updated in the position column, but still weird results in the BO order after reloading the page. Planning to develop a custom module that updates the category_product table with selected category and its products positions using a singe button after setting the selected category product positions. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
