How Do I Get Rid of the Sort Option in WooCommerce?

Last updated on January 17, 2023 @ 1:51 pm

If you’re using WooCommerce to sell products on your WordPress site, you may have noticed that there’s a “Sort by” drop-down menu on your product pages. This drop-down menu lets your customers sort your products by popularity, average rating, newness, price, and more.

While this sort feature can be useful for some stores, others may find it unnecessary or even confusing for their customers. If you fall into the latter category, you can easily remove the “Sort by” drop-down menu from your WooCommerce product pages with a few simple steps.

Here’s how to do it:

  1. Log into your WordPress site and go to the WooCommerce settings page.

  2. Click on the “Catalog” tab and scroll down to the “Default Sorting” section.

  3. In the “Default Product Sorting” drop-down menu, select “None”.

    (You can also choose to sort products by popularity or rating here, but we’ll be selecting “None” to completely remove the sort option. )

  4. Scroll down and click “Save Changes”. That’s it! The “Sort by” drop-down menu will no longer appear on your product pages.

Conclusion:

The “Sort by” drop-down menu will no longer appear on your product pages after following the steps above. If you want to give your customers the option to sort products, you can do so by selecting an option in the “Default Product Sorting” drop-down menu on the WooCommerce settings page.
