Sorting is taking too long

Hello there! I do think that your sorting system doesnt work well.
When you apply the sorting parameter, for example, price - ascending, it seems that it soring the whole catalogue/category (i got 3500 products) and it is taking WAY TOO LONG,
Why not make it sort only the current page of the catalogue/category and then, if the next page is selected, simply sort automatically, depending on on what parameter a costumer wants to sort.
I hope my point is clear. Who would like to wait 20 seconds to wait for all the products to be sorted?..

Hi,

Sorting on price is indeed long because there is a lot involved. It is REALLY complex to do it properly as you can have really complex pricing structure in Hikashop (several prices, for different users groups, for different minimums of quantity, with discounts, discounts which themselves can be configured in lot of ways, different taxes, etc).
If you want a fast sorting, use something else than price. For example, you could create a custom product field and enter the price there and then have your filter base itself on it instead of the normal price. You will see that it will be really fast in that case.

But isnt simplier to make the filter sort only the currently opened page?

That is already the case. Only the currently openned page is sorted.
