Configure sorting rank

You can define a sorting rank that determines the order in which products appear on the Featured Applications and All Applications tabs of your marketplace's home page and in product search results. You can use sorting ranks to promote certain products by making them more visible to potential customers.

To configure sorting rank

📝 Note: If the AppDirect logo appears in the upper-left corner of the page, when Manage > Marketplace appears in this topic, click the grid icon > Switch to | Store, instead.

1. Go to Manage > Marketplace > Products > CATALOG | Production Catalog.
   The Production Catalog opens.

2. Click the gear icon > Edit Marketplace Settings for the required product. The Settings page for the selected product appears.

3. Select one of the following options from the drop-down list in the Sorting Rank section on the General tab:

   • Very High
   • High
   • Medium
   • Low
   • Very Low
     Products with a higher ranking appear closer to the top of the home page, search results, and in the Featured Apps slider. If more than one product has the same sorting rank, those products are automatically sorted based on the following logic:
   • On the home page—Products appear in the same order as the configuration sequence. For example, Product A and Product B have the same sort rank. You configured Product A’s sorting rank, and then configured Product B’s sorting rank. Product A appears in the Featured Applications and All Applications pages first, then Product B follows.
   • In the search results—The product that most closely matches the search string entered by the customer appears first. For example, two products (Product A and Product B) have the same sort rank. You configured Product A’s sorting rank, and then configured Product B’s sorting rank. If the customer enters A in the search field, Product A appears first in the search results. If the customer enters Product in the search field, Product A appears first, then Product B follows.

4. Click Save. The product settings are updated.
