Sorting of products?

Any way to custom sort products on the store page?

It doesn't appear you can even modify the date of a product to order by date and "cheat" it.

Hello:

So you can custom sort all of your product pages if you want to...

1. You need to have settings -> additional settings -> Use Custom Post Type Linking turned ON (this gives every product and category their own posts in wordpress and lets you customize one page and not another)

2. Then you simply visit the store front end, and if you are logged in as an admin in wordpress, you will see a 'default sort order' button on there that you can adjust product sorting with.

We are using the [ec_store] shortcode currently to embed the store into a page -- as there are only 5 products. Can that still be re-ordered? Not seeing a button.

Should be able to resort products manually using above mentioned method.

1. You need to have settings -> additional settings -> Use Custom Post Type Linking turned ON (this gives every product and category their own posts in wordpress and lets you customize one page and not another)

2. Then you simply visit the store front end, and if you are logged in as an admin in wordpress, you will see a 'default sort order' button on there that you can adjust product sorting with.

We do have an option to turn off the front facing admin controls though... in our settings -> design section, there is a button to 'hide front end design editor' that it has to show the sorter.
