MultiExcerptNameFeature Overview
Manually set the sort order of the Master Product variants in the CMS to affect the displayed list of the product attributes.


Pre-change behaviour

In previous versions, if you wanted to change the order in which product variants displayed, you had to remove and add variants until you got your desired display order.

1.     Our current order has variants in an arbitrary order with the black colour set as the default value.

...

That would be a tedious exercise if we have a lot of products with a many variants. We have now enabled you to set the display order by easily dragging the attributes.

Step-by-step guide

1.     Log into your CMS

2.     Navigate to Settings → Feature Management → Products & Categories.

...

15.   In our example, you can see our Product Attributes match the sort order we configured in our Master Product Maintenance window.

16.   You will also notice that our Red chair shows as the Default product attribute, as per our Product Master maintenance settings.

17.   As expected, our drop-down attributes list is ordered alphabetically, with our Default Child variant highlighted.
