How to reorder products in your bundle?

To reorder individually selected products:




Overview

This article details the logic and necessary actions required to change the display sequence of products within a specific step of a bundle. The method for reordering is strictly determined by how the products were added to the step: via Individual Product Selection or via Collection Selection.


Core Logic & Functionality


The application utilizes two distinct logic paths for product ordering.


Scenario A: IF products were added individually

When a step contains specific products manually selected (e.g., "8 Selected Products"):


  1. Navigate to Step: Open the specific bundle step where individual products are configured.
  2. Access List: Click on the text label displaying the product count (e.g., "8 Selected Products").
  3. Reorder: Inside the list view, use the drag and drop function to move products into the desired sequence (e.g., moving a gray product to position 1).
  4. Commit Change: Click the Save button.
  5. Verification: Refresh the bundle screen. The front-end display order will immediately match the drag-and-drop order saved in the app.


Scenario B: IF a Collection was added

When a step is populated by selecting a single Collection:


  1. Inheritance Logic: The app does not determine the order locally. It mirrors the sort order defined within the Collection settings in the e-commerce platform backend.
  2. External Reorder:
    • Navigate to the Collection settings (outside the Bundle app).
    • Manually reorder the products within that Collection.
    • Ensure the Collection changes are saved (typically autosaved).
  1. Synchronization (Crucial Step):
    • Return to the Home Screen of the Bundle app.
    • Click the Sync collections button.
    • Wait until the system displays a message confirming that "syncing is complete."
  1. Verification: Refresh the bundle screen on the specific step. The product order will now match the order set in the external Collection.


Constraints & Edge Cases


  • Mutually Exclusive Methods: You cannot use drag-and-drop reordering inside the app for steps based on Collections. You must use the "Sync collections" method.
  • Sync Requirement: IF the product order is changed in a Collection but Sync collections is not clicked on the app Home Screen, THEN the bundle step will display the old order.
  • UI Refresh: Changes may not be visible immediately on the live bundle page until the browser page is refreshed.
