It’s possible to change the default sort order on collection pages this way https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/products/collections/collection-layout#change-the-sort-order-for-the-products-in-a-collection, there’s no mention of how to apply it on vendor pages (i.e /collections/vendors?q=samsung). Is there a way to change the default sort order for vendor pages like in collection pages?
Topic summary
A user asks how to change the default sort order specifically for vendor pages (e.g., /collections/vendors?q=samsung), noting that Shopify’s documentation only covers collection pages but doesn’t address vendor pages.
Community Interest:
- Two additional users express the same need, indicating this is a common question.
Proposed Solution:
- One user suggests adding URL filters to the end of vendor page URLs to control sorting
- Example provided: appending
&sort_by=created-descendingto sort by Newest to Oldest - References Shopify’s Liquid API documentation on sort_by filters for more details: https://shopify.dev/docs/api/liquid/filters/sort_by
Status: The discussion remains open with a workaround suggested but no confirmation of a native default sort setting for vendor pages.

would also like to learn about this, too
I would also like to know if there is a way to do this.
Another way to do this is to add URL filters at the end of the URL, eg sort by Newest to Oldest you can do:
/collections/vendors?q=samsung&sort_by=created-descending
