sorting products in multiple categories

[conhelrad]

Hello,

I'm trying to sort product in multiple categories.

I have products : A, B, C, D, E, F, G
in categories : 1, 2, 3 and 4

Cat 1 : A, B
Cat 2 : C, D
Cat 3 : E, F
Cat 4 : A, C, E, G

I can sort product in categories 1 to 3. But if I want to sort the Cat.4, nothing happens. In the backoffice it's ok, but on the front end, nothing is how I want it to be. Can't we sort products in multiple categories or is there a "hack" way to do it ?

Thank you

What's the category tree like?  Are you using the layered navigation so that products are grabbed from subcategories as well?

Hi NemoPS. I'm not sure to get what you mean.

 

I have my categories (with sometime subcategories). And by the way I use prestashop 1.7. When I want to order products, I go on Catalogue > Products. Then I select the category in the "filter by category" form on the right and it show all the products ordered by numbers.

You said nothing is how you want in the front, so I asked you if you are using the layered navigation module (search filter) in the front office. If it picks products from subcategories, they won't be ordered

Oh sorry. No I just show products by categories (and sometime subcategories). Which is working great for every sorting I did except the one that sort products from multiple categories in one extra category.
