default sorting option

Topic summary

  • Issue: Change the default product sorting on collection pages in a store using the Craft theme from “Alphabetically, A–Z” to “Date, new to old.”

  • Guidance provided: Adjust sorting at the collection level in the Shopify admin.
    • Path: Admin > Products > Collections > select a collection > change the Sort setting to “Newest.”
    • Apply this change for each collection where the default order should be “Date, new to old.”

  • Context: The default sort determines how products are listed on collection pages. “Newest” corresponds to ordering by date added, from new to old.

  • Artifacts: A screenshot was shared to show exactly where the sort option can be changed in the admin interface.

  • Status: A clear, actionable solution was provided. No confirmation of implementation yet; outcome not explicitly stated.

Hi @krupal ,

You only need go to Admin → Products → collections → collection → Update so sort type to Newest for each collection.
