Determining product sort order on your booking page
You can use the Sort Order setting to determine the display order of your products within categories on your Booking Page.
By default, products are displayed in descending order, meaning that the higher the number, the more prominently the product is displayed.

What is sort order? Sort order is the order in which your product displays within a category on your Booking page. |
Detail Page Layout
For those using a Detail Page layout (list), the higher the number, the higher the product is listed.
For example, a product with a sort order of 3 (Bike Rental) displays higher within the category than one with a sort order of 2 (SUP Rental) or 1 (Kayak Rental).
Hero Page Layout
Using the Hero layout (grid)? The higher the number, the closer the product is to the beginning of the product offerings.
For example, a product with a sort order of 3 (Bike Rental) displays higher within the product grid than one with a sort order of 2 (SUP Rental) or 1 (Kayak Rental).

Sort by Ascending Order You can reverse the display order of products so that all products display within ascending order by enabling the Sort by setting within your Booking Page settings (Manage > Layout > Booking Page). Learn more here: |
