Product Sort By - Dropdown

Has anyone created or know of a forum thread that explains how to modify the code to change the sort by on the products page to a dropdown selection?

Looking for a solution for the 4.1.x branch.

Thanks,

Louise

SpinyMan,

Excellent! That was what I was looking for.

Below is a slightly different version. Both are useful.

Quote:

<table>
<tr>
<td>
{$lng.lbl_sort_by}:
<select name="sort_by" ONCHANGE="location = this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;" >
{foreach from=$sort_fields key=name item=field}
{if $navigation_page > 1}{assign var="cur_url" value=$url|cat:"page="|cat:$navigation_page|cat:"& amp;sort="|cat:$name|cat:"&sort_direction="}
{else}{assign var="cur_url" value=$url|cat:"sort="|cat:$name|cat:"&sort_di rection="}
{/if}
<option value="{$cur_url}1" {if $name eq $selected && $direction eq 1}selected="selected"{/if}>{$field} (UP)</option>
<option value="{$cur_url}0" {if $name eq $selected && $direction eq 0}selected="selected"{/if}>{$field} (Down)</option>
{/foreach}
</select>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Thank you! I am sure others will find these useful as well.

Re: Product Sort By - Dropdown

main/search_sort_by.tpl - just replace or comment out the default code

It doesn't go on the product.tpl

Re: Product Sort By - Dropdown

I'm wondering how the dropdown looked/came out.
Any of you got it live to see how it worked out?

Re: Product Sort By - Dropdown

Louise your idea is OK, but the code is not. Could you please revise it?

Victor your custom work is working great. I appreciate if you offer it as only one select menu, without pushing any button after selecting. Close to Louise (which is not working).

Thanks.
