Is it possible to sort homepage specials? If not, in what order are they defaulted? It doesn't seem to be alphabetical, nor is it in the order in which I add them.

It looks mostly alphabetical on your site, but I can see where it's a bit off. On the 2 sites I'm using it on, they are A-Z for sure. Do you use Dataport? I think I've seen some descrepencies when I didn't sort my database A-Z before uploading, but other than that, I don't know what to say. I would welcome a way to resort them though...

I believe if you upload them in Dataport, it does allow you to specify in the "Order Column" in which order you want them to show up. Other than that, I haven't found a way to just sort them online. That would be a handy feature.

I have found that they are alphabetical by manufacturer. Then, within the manufacturer the are alphabetized again. It would be nice if we could sort our homepage specials the way we want.

The Sort Order does not apply to the homepage special that I can see in either dataport or the online manager.

Sort order should apply to home page specials, if you have that set to be the primary sort key in Site Wide Settings. However, it sounds like you have the products set to be alphabetical and ALSO have them sub-divided by manufacturer. You can change BOTH settings in site-wide settings. If you need help contact us in tech support.
