This article describes the new setting in Mission Control that allows for the establishment of sorting options of all products in a store's ECOM menu
The “Menu Default Sort” feature only works store by store, the applied setting does not apply across a group. The feature has to be applied for each store within a group.
The new feature within Mission Control can be accessed by clicking on "Settings" from the left hand margin in Mission Control, and can be found within the "Store Configuration" tab
By default, the "Menu Default Sort" options are set to "No Sorting". This sorting option shows when clicking on the drop down arrow in the row of the settings "Menu Default Sort"
By clicking on the downward facing arrow in the row of "Menu Default Sort", a variety of sorting options appear and can be selected to sort all products on the ECOM menu accordingly.
Once a "Menu Default Sort" option has been selected in Mission Control, the corresponding sorting option will automatically be displayed on the ECOM menu sorting options dropdown. View below for the example of having the "Menu Default Sort" "New on the Menu" selected:
This is the "Menu Default Sort" option displayed on the ECOM menu:

Important information for the following 4 Sorting Options:
-
THC / CBD content values must be set up for all products within the same category as either a percentage ( % ) or a value in milligrams ( mg ). Please make sure it is not a mix of both. If one category contains a mix of both THC / CBD values in mg and %, the sorting feature for these values will not work.
- THC / CBD potencies need to be displayed in a relative number, i.e. in values that the underlying sort logic can identify and arrange accordingly
- a "relative number" is a simple numeric value such as 1, 5.5, 4, 3.5
- Ranges for THC / CBD potencies are supported and will allow for ECOM menu sorting. The potency type must be the same for all products within the same Category
