Hello,
Is it possible to sort variations on shop page? (I have also enabled the feature that hides parent products)
Thank you.
Also, product sorting doesn’t work at all when hide parent products is enabled.
Hello,
I see that you disabled the shop toolbar with the sorting options. Could you, please, provide us with the WP Dashboard access to your site to enable that and check the problem.
Regards
Private.
Hello,
I have enabled toolbar and sorted products and it works ok https://gyazo.com/591aec5362657910cb38f7fea2ba3b94
Could you, please, provide a video of the issue for better understanding?
Regards
Sorry, I didn’t explain properly. I mean that the sorting in the backend doesn’t work. Check screenshot.
Hello,
Oh, I see. But it does not work this way. You can choose the default sorting on the frontend in Theme Options > WooCommerce > Product catalog > default sorting and you chose the most recent there. So, order of the backend does not display on the shop because the shop page displays the most recent products according to your settings for the frontend.
Regards
Default option doesn’t work, that’s why I chose to show recent products. Please try to choose default and sort a product on the backend. It doesn’t work.
Hello,
Our developers checked the problem and unfortunately, it’s not possible to inherit the custom sorting if you show variations on the grid instead of the parent products.
Regards
Thank you, no problem. Could you also check this thread? https://www.8theme.com/topic/hide-parent-product-from-search-only-show-variation/#post-321537
It has been resolved by you but the problem just came up again.
Thank you.
About the variation sorting, do you plan on a feature like this? It would be really useful. Or maybe are you aware of an external plugin for this?
Hello,
We did not have plans for this. You may try to submit a feature request here https://www.8theme.com/taskboard/ If it takes votes from other customers
then developers will be able to move it to the “To do” list.
Didn’t meet plugins for these purposes, did not search. But you may try to look for them.

Thank you, can you also take a look at this :

Hello,
We made fix in the theme files. Do you reupload the theme again and again? Don’t update or reupload theme files till the next update if you want to keep fix.
Regards
I haven’t re-uploaded or updated the theme because I was aware of the customizations. It was updated by one of your team.
Hello,
Strange because our team members told that they updated theme, fixed issue and that’s all. Ok, anyway, don’t reupload theme files till the next theme update.
Regards
Sure, no problem.
Thank you.
Regards
