Hi, 

For a customer we want to sort the variants. Is this possible as the same way as the products? 

I already tried sort ascending and sort descending but when I save then it change the sorting to as it was before. Is this a bug? Should this normally work and also sort then like that on the frontend?

BR,

Hi Manon

Could you ellaborate where you want the sorting? Is in the product list with 'exploded' variants, or is it in the product detail page where you show the options, or the list of available variant combinations? Would like to understand in what context - preferably the loop you are in.

Thanks for clarifying!

Hi Nicolai, 

We would like to sort the list on the product detail page. You can check is on: http://yamada.test1.innovadis.com/our-pumps/ndp-05/polypropylane-(ppg)-teflon%C2%AE-(ptfe)-ryton-air-motor 

Hope you have a good tip for us.

Thanks - so is that a list of options or combinations?

Options can be sorted from the Ecommerce variant settings.

The sorting you use is strictly UI and cannot be persisted
Combinations (Table EcomVariantOptionsProductRelation in database) currently does not have a sort column, så cannot be sorted manually.

It would be simple enough to sort them alpabetically though using LINQ in the template.

It is a list of combinations. 

I will try the LINQ if that works for the customer. Thank you so far.
