Bring store usability to a new level and increase profit
Advanced sorting options for better shopping experience
Looking for an easy-to-use tool to enhance customer shopping experience and increase your conversion rate? With the Improved Sorting extension customers will be able to easily sort products by various parameters according to their needs. The more user-friendly your site is – the more orders you get, everybody wins.
Boost the sales of your bestsellers
Although it’s difficult to predict which products will become bestselling, at the same time a few really popular items can generate the vast majority of store revenue. Then why not help your cash cows generate even more profit?
With the Improved Sorting extension bestselling and highly rated products will be automatically pushed to the top. Apart from that, you can manually manage the order of products for some options and create featured product blocks.
Enhanced usability with new sorting options
Sorting by sales, 'Bestsellers'
Each store highlights its bestselling products, as high sales demonstrate that a product is great. It also encourages customers to make their choice much faster. Thus, ‘Sort by popularity’ option will help to increase your conversion rate by drawing attention to any Magento bestseller you need. You can also specify the period, for which the sales are counted, for example last 100 days.
Sorting by savings, display name 'Biggest Saving'
Even tempting deals won’t work for your business when customers can't find them. This magento product sorting option displays products based on the difference between regular price and special price. The bigger the difference - the higher the product is placed in the list. It will be very popular while holidays, as people are used to getting discounts during such periods. So, don't miss the chance to properly show your specials.
Sorting by the biggest discount percentage
Sort products by the highest percentage of discount with the ‘Biggest Savings’ ranking option.
Sorting Magento products 'by newest'
When customers click on the ‘Magento sort by newest’ option, new items are displayed at the top. And as soon as store visitors always tend to buy new products, this option will work for fashion stores, mobile phone stores and other sites of the kind, where people always look for new trendy things. You can use a custom date attribute to manage the order of products’ display for this option.
Bring store usability to a new level and increase profit
Set any order for the sorting options
You can specify any preferred order for the sorting options in the Magento Sort by dropdown. Depending on the products assortment of your web store, you can set the most effective (or demanded in your opinion) sorting options to the top of the dropdown.
Products Sorting by Default
Specify the way the products should be sorted on the search result page and on the categoty pages. Set the priority for the sorting methods: specify the primal method and the following two algorithms. Have a full control on how to display the products in the most favored way for you.
Sorting by Magento product rating and by the number of reviews
When shopping, people are more likely to choose products with positive feedback from real customers than the products with just catchy banner adds. And, of course, there's nothing they will trust more than rating and reviews.
Sorting by presence in wishlists, 'Now in Wishlists'
Many people buy things, which other people have or want to have. Also best-selling products may be difficult to get in holiday season. 'Now in Wishlists' will show products that are most frequent in wishlists - people will be afraid to miss the opportunity to get them and will place orders faster.
Advanced sorting options based on product's profitability
With a set of new sorting options admin users can display the most profitable (or the least profitable) products in sort results and featured blocks, thus effectively regulating sales of particular products.
Sorting by the number of item views
Magento ‘Most viewed products’ option is a real must-have for new sites, which can’t boast of numerous orders. Views are generated much faster, so you can easily demonstrate the most popular products to customers and motivate them buy more. The ‘Most viewed products’ Magento feature also enables you to specify the period, during which the views are counted, for example last 100 days.
Sorting by the amount of products, ‘Quantity’
This type of Magento product sorting is useful for wholesalers, who buy products in large amounts. Now they can easily find out which items have the most stock.
New options include sorting by:
- Profit (is calculated as Price minus Cost);
- Revenue (sorting is based on a product's sales amount);
- Revenue per view (represents the estimated earnings you receive for every product page view);
- Order per view.
Works for catalog and search
Sorting works both for products from the catalog and key word searches as well as layered navigation pages and landing pages generated by Landing Pages extension.
Blocks with featured products
Create featured product blocks based on sorting options
Create a sidebar block with Magento most viewed products or a top block with bestselling products and so on. Use templates provided by the extension or make your own ones.
Create featured product blocks of your Magento bestsellers, most popular products and other sorting types. Check out the extension demo for some examples of such blocks.
Display products from any category in the blocks
YAdd product blocks to any Magento page. In the blocks you can show products from the category they are displayed in or from any category you specify.
Advanced catalog management features
Manually manage products’ order in Bestsellers and Most Viewed lists
The extension automatically prioritizes products based on the sales amount or the number of views. If you want to manually move particular products up in the Magento bestsellers and most viewed lists to sell them quicker, this is also possible.
Ability to have descending order by default
In Magento ‘sort by’ options have ascending order. It means that, for example, you can’t display most expensive items at the top. The extension enables you to sort magento products by price from high to low. This option is also applicable to other sorting types.
Display out of stock products at the end of the product list
At the top of a product list it’s better to display items which you can sell right away. Customers will still be able to see and search for out of stock products. This feature has an effect only on catalog pages and can be disabled if necessary.
Display products with zero quantity at the end of the list
If you allow backorders, some products may have inventory status 'in stock', even if their quantity is zero. You can display such products at the end of the product list, when needed.
Set default sorting for search results page
When you do a search in Magento store, the results are shown in ascending order of creation. This means that older products are shown first. Though for business it would be much better to emphasize best sellers or biggest savings. Now it is possible to set default sorting for search results page and for advanced search results page in just a click.
Set sorting by any of the new options as default
Make any of the new sorting options default both at the catalog and category level.
Select sort orders for specific categories
With the Magento category order feature you can change sort orders on a per-category basis and even change the default sort order per category.
Additional helpful features
Disable sorting options
You can disable any of the new sorting options both at the catalog and category level.
Optional indexing
The indexing mechanism ensures your category pages are loaded fast even if you have a very large catalog.
Works with layered navigation
Magento product order extension enables customers to apply all sorting options to product lists generated by layered navigation.
EE note
Sort order Magento tool supports MySql Fulltext search engine. Solr support will be added in the next versions.

Improved Sorting module supports all types of products. Read on to learn all the nuances.
- Great ExtensionThis extension is an absolute must if you want to show popular items that your store has....which might or might not present themselves ordinarily...and with very big store...definitely worth having
- Great extension - great supportThe module works perfectly, we have used it more than once for our projects. Once only we had a conflict with another extension in one of our projects but the support by everyone in Amasty was immediate and swift. They got the job done. Your support is greatly appreciated guys. Thanks a lot. Keep up the good work.
- Great support and usefull moduleThe module works as described and the support team are speedy, efficient and courteous.
- Good supportThere was a conflict with other module we use so sorting did not work for search results. They fixed it for us and module is working now. Sorting is a good feature to have in catalog for stock etc...
- Great serviceExcellent addition to our store. We had one implementation glitch and the support staff answered our inquiry immediately and took charge to fix the issue. We have not launched our store live yet, but this is working very well in development testing.
- Works well, great supportNeeded some tweaks to make it work properly for our store and the developer promptly assisted. Works great with excellent customer support. Would recommend.
- Good module!You can choose how you want to order your product in your online store, it works :D
- Handy toolI bet this is one of the greatest tools for huge stores with hundreds of products. Sorting works like a well oiled machine and since the extension installation we've never received any customer complaints. The latest update with new sorting options are more likely to be made for admin users rather than for store visitors. And it works fine for featured blocks.
- Fantastic, far better than doing custom developmentI've used this extension for several clients. The fact that they can create templates and have dependent custom options with images associated with them is so useful. Custom developing all of this functionality would cost $10K+. Very thankful for this extension.
- catchthefireDoes just what it says and comes with lots of customizability, especially the function to manipulate the "best sellers" search with your own custom data. We had a conflict with the Mana SEO module and Amasty support fixed everything for us. catchthefire Magento Connect
- Excellent and quick supportHad a small issue, but Amasty responded quickly and professionally. Absolutely worth the small investment!
- Does what we neededWe upgraded to Magento 1.8.1.0 and had problems with the change in the way the Sort Order displays products on the Category page. Using this extension and setting the products to display by 'New' resolved the issue and gave us a matching Sort Order to the previous version of Magento. One feature request: It would be really handy to be able to change the 'Direction' within the admin. However, it was simple enough to change in the extension code.
- Great plugin and support!Plugin works great and developer Dzmitry provided great support very fast for requested customizations.
- Good extension with great support from developerI purchased this extension first in 2012, and recently needed some help with a modification due to a conflict with another extension. The developer helped me right away and fixed my problem same day. Great service on top of a great product.
- Works excellentWorks like charm, and the support helped me incredible fast.
- Ultimate sorting optionsIn my case installation passed painlessly and we didn't have to fix any issues as there were no conflicts with other already installed modules. It really helps our visitors faster find the items they need that is positively reflects on our conversions.
- Great Support & ExtensionI have searching for a module like this for months ..... It does what it says, it works OK with my custom theme fortis. I had some extension conflicts with other module (Advance Navigation) and the support team was great, very proffessional, very quick. Thanks Amasty for the great work. Keep it that way.
- Improves Product SortingIt has great bestseller / most viewed in X days options. Also biggest saving feature is my favorite. It's fast with indexing. Highly recommended.
- Very great extension i recommendVery great extension i recommend, i bought many extensions from amasty company, easy installation and fast response and experienced fix if there is Conflict with your website, many thanks!
- Works great out of box with 1.7.0.2Just installed this without backing up(HAHA). Worked right out of the boxed after copying the files and as intended. Nice one mates.
- Long-term moduleWe use that extension for almost 1 year now and are pretty happy. Its really useful, especially for our customers. The latest improvements, like setting a timeframe-period for the bestseller items make it a must have in our shop. Lassn, Magento Connect
- Without a RivalGreat support. I had trouble with getting the sorting to work on the Search Results page, they emailed me a solution within 24hours. jgarite, Magento Connect,
- New site with AmastyWe've moved it to our live site and all seems well :-) Really impressed to see it working with it's own separate index and including bundle products too. Good work! James Robinson, driftworks.com,
- Our choiceI think our new store will have just about every Amasty extension going! Pete, codethis.co.uk
- Wide range of extensionsBy default, magento should be having those sort options. It is a known fact that magento community version still lacks a lot of basic features. and sorting by best seller was on of them. we have been ranking in google for a high volume search term and we have a good number of visitors and a huge catalog of about 1000 items. but we always only got about 80-90 orders at max. that left me to think that something could be wrong. and, i went to amazon to see what they have that we were lacking. And, when i looked into their catalog, they always displayed items by their best sellers. And, this is where magento lacked and we too as an ecommerce store offering such huge variety of items missed out on the point that customers are HEAVILY INFLUENCED by what others are buying and they want to quickly buy what have been selling well. So, we have implemented this sort order now and we used Amasty installation service and everything was set right. We are now waiting to see if this ! SINGLE CHANGE will bring in a big change in our eCommerce store. :) Ahamed Sha, saraoutlet.com,
- Very usefulI love this extension. It is very important that buyers have the ability to sort products by different parameters. I think every store should have such functionality.
- Great Extension - Great SupportDoes exactly what you expect, has an issue between 2 extensions and these guys sorted in very quickly. 10/10
- Simply great extensionSimply great extension, just what I wanted. It allows users to sort product by the variety of factors which are important to them: biggest savings, best price, best ratings, etc. In my opinion, each descent store should have such sorting. Thanks to Amasty for great extension!
- Very useful extensionVery useful extension as magento's default sort-by options are rather limited. Also have to mention the excellent support. I had a conflict with another extension and they had no problem with fixing it for me nice and quickly. Highly recommended.
- Very useful!Well done extension with great support. Especially the option to sort "out of stock" products last without breaking the selected sorting method is very useful to raise conversion rate.
