Collection sorting

Updated Oct 27, 2026

Collection Sort & Manage lets you choose the order of products in a Shopify collection. Choose a sort order field and direction, preview the result, then save it or apply it now. You can run sorting on demand or set a repeat schedule.

How sorting works

Choose a collection, then select its Sort order and, where available, Direction. Use Run Preview to check the result. Save stores the settings; Apply now or Sort now runs them immediately, depending on the collection. Choose Repeat when you want sorting to run on a schedule.

You can also move products manually, push products up or down or import a sort order. For a reusable set of sorting settings across collections, use a merchandising strategy.

Where to start

Open Merchandising → View collections to find a collection and check its current sort order. See View collections for the list actions, or open Sort types to choose how products should be ordered.
