X-Cart forums - How TO Order Products List By Field

Hey everyone,

I managed to get a sort working by Price and by Product (can be further applied for any other product fields), along the lines that this original thread was going towards (i.e. A "Sort By" link at the top of the product listings).

Did the following:

1) Made the changes in navigation.tpl and products.tpl (basically adding the code so that $orderby variable can be passed back and forth), according to what funkydunk mentioned earlier in this thread

2) DID NOT MODIFY func.php at all... Instead, modified products.php to:

Code:

$products = func_search_products($search_query, !empty($user_account['membership'])?$user_account['membership']:"", $first_page,$current_category["product_count"],0,$orderby);

The sorting is then not only limited to price, but whatever variables you would like to add to products.tpl for sorting... Hope this works for everyone!
