Take complete control of how products are sorted, ranked, and displayed in your WooCommerce store. Custom Product Sorting Options for WooCommerce is an advanced WooCommerce product sorting and reordering plugin built for stores that need more than basic drag-and-drop product ordering.
Easily reorder and sort products with a visual drag-and-drop interface, grid and table views, bulk actions, undo/redo, sorting history, and precise catalog control. Create different product sorting strategies globally or at the category, subcategory, tag, and brand level, including WooCommerce taxonomies.
Go beyond manual product sorting with powerful automatic sorting rules based on product ID, name, date, price, rating, reviews, views, sales, popularity, SKU, stock status, featured products, sale products, and custom product metadata. Schedule sorting rules to run automatically and keep your product catalog organized without constantly managing products manually.
Use product merchandising campaigns to feature products, boost product rankings, and promote selected products during seasonal or promotional periods. Control how out-of-stock products are displayed, including hiding products, moving them to the top or bottom, controlling add-to-cart behavior, and applying stock thresholds.
Built for growing WooCommerce stores, the plugin combines product sorting, product reordering, automated catalog sorting, merchandising, product boosting, stock management, scheduling, and analytics in one powerful solution.
Whether you need to sort products by category, reorder products by tag, customize brand-level product sorting, boost best sellers, promote products on sale, organize large catalogs, or automate your WooCommerce product ordering, Custom Product Sorting Options gives you the flexibility and control to create the product catalog experience you want.

Powerful WooCommerce Product Sorting & Reordering
Organize your WooCommerce catalog exactly the way you want with flexible product sorting and reordering tools designed for both small stores and large product catalogs. Apply automatic sorting rules when you want products to be organized by performance or product data, or switch to manual merchandising when you need complete control over the exact product order.
With global sorting and taxonomy-level sorting, you can create a consistent catalog structure while still giving individual categories, tags, and brands their own product-ordering strategies.
Key capabilities:
- Global WooCommerce product sorting
- Manual product reordering
- Automatic sorting rules
- Drag-and-drop product ordering
- Hide out of stock products
- Category-specific sorting
- Tag-specific sorting
- Brand-specific sorting
- Pinned products
- Ascending/descending sorting
- Sorting history
- Reset product order
Visual Drag & Drop Product Sorting
Reorder WooCommerce products visually instead of manually managing product positions one by one. The intuitive sorting workspace makes it easy to arrange products exactly where you want them and quickly adjust your catalog as your merchandising strategy changes.
Choose the view that works best for your catalog:
Grid View
Visually arrange products using product cards for a more intuitive merchandising workflow.
Table View
Work with a structured product list when managing larger catalogs or making precise product-ordering changes.
Work faster with:
- Drag-and-drop product ordering
- Grid and table views
- Bulk actions
- Move to top
- Move to bottom
- Randomize
- Undo
- Redo
- Reset order
- Configurable products per page
- Sorting history
- Progress indicators
Category, Tag & Brand Product Sorting
Different product collections often need different merchandising strategies. Custom Product Sorting Options lets you override your general sorting configuration at the product category, product tag, and product brand level.
For example, your main shop can prioritize best-selling products while a specific category uses price sorting, a seasonal tag uses manual merchandising, and a brand archive uses a completely different product order.
This gives store owners much more granular control over their WooCommerce catalog.
Configure sorting independently for:
- Product categories
- Subcategories
- Product tags
- Product brands
- Individual taxonomy terms
- Child taxonomy terms
Taxonomy-level controls
For each supported taxonomy, you can configure options such as:
- Enable sorting override
- Default sorting rule
- Sort direction
- Products per page
- Maximum pagination pages
- Pinned products
- Apply settings to child terms
Product Merchandising & Ranking Control
Product sorting isn’t only about arranging products alphabetically or by price. Use product merchandising controls to decide which products receive greater visibility throughout your catalog.
Pin important products to the top, prioritize high-performing products, arrange promotional products strategically, and create custom product sequences for campaigns and collections.
Merchandising Analytics

Instead of relying only on manual assumptions, review your store’s product and sales performance to understand which products deserve more visibility and which products may need attention.
