Overview

About this plugin

Extra Product Sorting Options for WooCommerce provides options that extend the default WooCommerce orderby options on the shop page. You can optionally set a new name for the default sorting (helpful if you’ve used this to create a custom sorting order), and can enable up to 5 new sorting options: alphabetical, reverse alphabetical, on sale, review count, and availability product sorting. You can also remove core sorting options, or remove the sorting dropdown completely.

Features

Includes options to:

  • rename default product sorting (i.e., change to “Our Sorting”)
  • enable alphabetical product sorting
  • enable reverse alphabetical sorting
  • enable on sale sorting ( note: works only for simple products)
  • enable sorting by inventory / availability
  • enable sorting by review count (most reviews to least)
  • remove core sorting options

Rename Default Sorting

You can customize your product sorting order on your shop pages – here’s a handy tutorial to do so. However, many shop admins like to then rename this from “Default Sorting” to something more descriptive, such as “Our Sorting” or “Our Selection”. You can optionally enter a new name for this sorting order if desired.

Adding Sorting Options

When you create a customized sorting order, you lose the ability to sort products alphabetically. This plugin gives you the ability to add new sorting options to list products by title A to Z or in reverse order (Z to A).

Want to show items with the highest stock first? You can enable sorting by availability, which will enable sorting from high stock to low stock (See FAQ for more details). You can also sort by the number of product reviews.

You can add the option to sort items by sale status – there’s a sorting option to show “On Sale” items first in the shop catalog. Please note that only simple products can be sorted by sale status, and variable products will display mixed with non-sale products.

Remove Sorting Options

You can remove the core sorting options as well! If all sorting options have been removed, the sorting dropdown will become hidden on shop pages.
