Sort by price--easy way? feature request
Posted: Sun Jan 11, 2004 9:59 amI'm using shopsite manager 6.x and am making pages "shop by price". There
appears to be no way to automatically sort the products by price, and some
pages have 80+ products. I've gone so far as to do an "upload page
database" where I've taken the column for products on the page and ordered
the data in that column in the order I want it to appear (generated via
Excel formulas) and that didn't work. The documentation says products are
displayed in the order they are uploaded, which seems dumb to me, to be
honest.
short of manually re-ordering 199 products across 4 pages, is there ANY
automated way to sort by price? if no, please consider this as a feature
request. It's kinda a no-brainer, isn't it? There really should be a
couple of automated sort options: by price, by sku, and alphabetically.
And hey, while I'm dreaming, couldn't shopsite automatically generate the
"shop by price" pages? It shouldn't be THAT hard to write the code for any
of these features.
