Goal: Change product sort options on collection pages so “Date, old to new/new to old” uses Published Date (when a product goes live) instead of Creation Date (when it was first created).
Context: Shopify Online Store 2.0, Craft theme v13.0.0. The requester is concerned about maintaining correct pagination (consistent item order across pages) if sorting by Published Date.
What’s been tried: The original poster reviewed prior solutions but none target Shopify 2.0 or address pagination reliability. A second participant confirms they also need this and haven’t found a working approach.
Assets: Store link provided; a screenshot is included but not essential to the issue.
Status/Outcome: No solution or workaround provided yet; no code changes or Shopify settings identified. The thread remains open with a clear ask for a method to sort by Published Date while preserving pagination behavior.
Hello! I am trying to find a way to change the default sort_by options for dates (Date, old to new ; Date, new to old) to use the Published Date rather than the Creation Date. I’m referring specifically to the Product sorting as used on Collection pages.
I have seen several other posts that attempt to address this, but none with Shopify 2.0 and none that address pagination issues. I’m using Craft theme, v13.0.0. My site is here: https://haustheory.com
Thanks in advance for any help!
I would really like to be able to do this as well. I haven’t found anything that works properly. Seems like it would be such a simple change.
