Arrange Items

Products and links on a page can appear in any order. The Arrange Items option allows you to determine the order of these items on the page.

Note:

You can either use this screen to arrange the items on a page, or use the Page Arrangement fields on the Edit Page Layout screen. The Page Arrangement fields are easy but more limited, while the Arrange Items feature gives you complete control over the order of presentation.

Each item assigned to the page is displayed with a number next to it. To rearrange the order of items on the page, change the numbers to reflect the order you want. You can also use the drag-and-drop interface to arrange the items by dragging the item name up or down as desired. The numbers will automatically change to reflect their new position.

You can put any number or letter in the boxes to help sort the items on the page. For example, if you wish to move the first item to appear between the 6th and 7th items, enter 6.5 in the box next to the first item, then click Sort as Specified. You can also replace the numbers with letters and sort them alphabetically. (Note: Any items with letters will appear after all numbered items. Also, using letters for some items will cause any numbers like 10 and 11 to come between 1 and 2 rather than after 9 like in a numerical sort.)

To sort the items alphabetically by the item name, click Sort by Name at the bottom of the screen. Note that this may mix products and page links together

Click Sort as Specified to refresh the current screen with the new sort order.
Click Save Changes to save the new order and return to the List of Pages screen.
Click Assign Items to save the order and add or remove items from the list.
