I did find the "bug" mentioned below about the new sort_order fields being lost on multiple pages. This might not be the cleanest fix, but these 2 changes (to index.php and to the sort heading routine in general.php) make it work for my site.

First let me say that I just started using osCommerice. I wanted to list my products by price order instead of description by default and was able to modify the categories.php file to do just that. It works for me and I'd like to pass along the modification for anyone who wants it.

Thanks.

There is a small bug in this Contribution which does not correctly display the items that fall in the list after the first page of results. The listing appears to be correct but in fact it is out of the sort order and when returning back to previous pages, the listing is not consistent with the original order it was in. This is being worked on, and if anyone wishes to provide assistance please do so.

Thanks.

The only change to this package is in the install file. The previous version has a file named "product_browser.php" located in the includes directory of the catalog. This file does not exist in version MS2.2. The mod needed to be made in the index.php file of the store. This update is the full package. If you are using MS2.2 please use these updated install directions.

Thanks to Howard for a great Contribution!

Just a plain, simple way to sort your products, instead of the default alphabetical sorting.

It allows you to chose which products show up at the beginning of the list on your site, but it still allows people to click a column header to sort that way if they want. (They can resort the list alphabetically or by price still)
