Product sorting extension

The add-on helps display products in a more useful order on the storefront. It moves products with the selected feature value to the top in the chosen categories and adds a dedicated price sorting option where zero-price products do not get in the way of the list.

What it is for

The add-on is useful for stores where the most relevant products should appear first. It works well when you want to highlight products with a specific feature value and still keep a clear sorting experience for customers.

Key features

  • moves products with the selected feature value to the top in the chosen categories;
  • applies the rule to child categories;
  • adds a dedicated ascending price sorting option;
  • pushes zero-price products to the end of the list;
  • uses standard CS-Cart sorting.

How it works

You define which feature value should take priority and which categories should use it. After that, products with this value are shown first on the storefront, while the rest of the list keeps the normal sorting order.

The add-on also extends price sorting so zero-price products do not appear at the top of the list.

Instructions for Product sorting extension

What the add-on does

The add-on changes how products are ordered on the storefront. It moves products with the selected feature value to the top in the chosen categories and their child categories, and it also adds a dedicated ascending price sorting option where zero-price products are moved to the end of the list.

Where to find it

  • Add-ons → Manage add-ons → add-on card — this is where the add-on page shows the description, instruction, and change history tabs.
  • Catalog → Product features → required feature → variant — this is where you define the categories for the priority value.
  • Storefront → Product category → Sorting — this is where customers see the result.

How to configure it

  1. Open Catalog → Product features and select the feature you need.
  2. Open the required feature variant for editing.
  3. In the add-on block, choose the categories where this value should appear first.
  4. If needed, assign the same category to several feature variants.
  5. Save the changes.
  6. If you need the price sorting option, check the standard storefront sorting list and make sure it is available there.

How to check it

  1. Open a storefront category where feature-value priority is configured.
  2. Make sure products with that value are shown first.
  3. Open a child category and confirm that the rule works there too.
  4. Select ascending price sorting and make sure zero-price products appear at the end of the list.

What to keep in mind

  • Priority works only for feature values that have categories assigned.
  • If several categories are assigned to one variant, the rule applies to all of them.
  • Normal product sorting is preserved, the add-on only moves the priority group to the top.
