Hi guys,

I'm listing products with the new "index" but I can not sort them by the module or parameter (sortby/SortOrder).
Is this a DW bug or I have to configure something else?

DW Version: 8.6.1.14

 

Best Regards,

Ricardo Pereira

Hi,

 

Does anyone have an answer for this? We are using the new index engine but need to control the sorting in frontend.

 

Best Regards,

Hi Ricardo,

There are a couple of ways you can specify sorting. If you want static sorting, you can set that on the query. Dynamic sorting, i.e., sorting specified in the frontend, is handled a bit differently. You need to create a parameter on the query with the same name as the field you want to sort by, then you can pass SortBy and SortDirection in the query string, and the sorting will be applied.

Be aware, that we fixed this so it doesn't require a parameter with the same name as the field in Dynamicweb 8.7.

Hi Jeppe,

I created the paramaters "SortBy" and "SortOrder" but I have not the sorting anyway.
Example: "?SortBy=Name&SortOrder=ASC"

Hi Ricardo,

You need to create a parameter with the same name as the field. In your case, you need to create a parameter called "Name".
