Hi,

Go on the products listing in the backend and you'll see the "order" column where you'll have one input field for each product. Enter the order you want for each in these input fields and click on the icon next to the title of that column to save the new ordering.
Note that if you don't get the input fields, that's because you're displaying products from different categories at the same time and it can't work properly as the order is per product per category. So you need to go in a specific category where you have products without sub categories to do that.

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for your reply. This indeed does changes the order list on the CMS but it doesn't change the view on our website. I would like to change the view on products listing on our website with different sequence.

Thanks.

Hello,

As you can see there few products included. I would like the product 3 to be on the first position and the product 4 to be on the second and do changes on the products sequence. I found that there is a menu on hikashop where you can change the sequence of the products but it is based on specific information product ID, names etc. I would like to do the changes dynamically based on my criteria. Ideally to drag and drop the products between positions etc.

(As last resort I was thinking to categorize the products and short them out based on the product category but again you can add first listing the product 3 category and after product 1 and then product 5 etc. I will just classified them instead of randomly listing them mixed).

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

You've changed that "ordering field" setting from the default "ordering" to "productcharacteristics".
Change it back to ordering and then the system will take into account the ordering that you set in the "order" column of the products listing.
