SOLVED: Sort Products in descending order w layered navigation

[Andreea S.]

Hi everyone, 

 

I've recently updated to PS 1.6.1.15 and my product sorting got messed up ever since. My BO settings are to sort in descending order inside cats and this was working perfectly before the update. 

 

Everything works fine if I disable the layered navigation block, however I need that functionality. I tried to disable -> clear cache [product sort order is ok] -> enable => the sort order gets messed up again. 

 

I would assume I need to manually change some code inside blocklayered.php, any idea what that is? Thanks! 

 

P.S.: I know there are many posts on this topic, but I couldn't find an appropriate solution

I always seem to search for solutions and try different coding for days and then 5 mins after I post a forum topic, I actually find the solution. 

 

So, here it is, in case anyone has the same issue: 

 

Turn off Show products from subcategories inside the Layered Navigation module and everything will work just fine.
