With Shift4Shop, you have the option of allowing product sorting based on several parameters. These sorting options can be displayed on your store's category, browse by manufacturer, and browse by price pages. When arriving to these pages, the store will display the products in the default sorting order you select. However, your shoppers can also select which order they would like the products to be displayed in - after the page appears - using the same parameters.
