herbsandhelpers Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 (edited) Hello, I have no idea why the products list randomly under the categories and can't find where to reorder it: How do I ensure the products all list A-Z under each category?

Hotclutch Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 There does not appear to be an option to change the sort order in the sitemap widget. The products list newest to oldest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

herbsandhelpers Posted September 30 Author Share Posted September 30 Thanks for trying to help. I’ve already got this set to A-Z. I’ve also set each category/sub category also set to A-Z. Nothing changes in Sitemap Display … It looks so unprofessional and makes it hard for people to locate items. Surely there must be a way.

herbsandhelpers Posted September 30 Author Share Posted September 30 Please note this specifically means the display under Site Map widget. Lorraine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotclutch Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Please read my first post, you will need a code change to do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herbsandhelpers Posted October 1 Author Share Posted October 1 Okay, No problem, Do you know how to access the Site Map widget and change the order? So far I’ve had no success locating the right area. Where is it? Thank you, Lorraine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotclutch Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 In the theme designer, you enter the URL of your sitemap page. https://yoururl.com/sitemap Then you will be able to configure the page there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herbsandhelpers Posted October 1 Author Share Posted October 1 Please note I have already tried the usual ways to try and update the site map widget but nothing works. In design the site map widget cannot be edited. If you know where the sitemap widget is located then maybe I can find it and look at the code. However none of the files I've checked seem to be it. Can you give the shop structure where it will be? Thanks, Lorraine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apologize for missing this was for a specific page. I don't see a site map widget in the test shop I have here. is it a purchased app or named something other than sitemap?

herbsandhelpers Posted October 1 Author Share Posted October 1 No it’s a built widget. The site map widget is in the menu list, so you can add it to the menu. In theme you can also add/access it from the pages menu and widget menu. Once you add it it produces a site map on the page where it is added. The problem as illustrated above is that there doesn’t seem to be anywhere you can order the product listing under the categories. It looks unprofessional and makes it hard to locate items, defeating the purpose of a site map! Any help to access the code to change and reorder this appreciated. Dooohhhh!

I can see it in the menu but not in the widgets list. I've checked three sites and it is not there so that is baffling. But I think Ashley is correct and a code change will be needed for this. The change would be a simple one but I can't find the file handling the display. Maybe one of the oscommerce team will respond.

herbsandhelpers Posted October 1 Author Share Posted October 1 In theme go to Pages, under Information scroll down to find Site Map widget. Yes if someone can guide me to the file in the shop to change order by A-Z please. Otherwise it’s simply mental for a SITE MAP!
