How can we take influence to suggestions order?

[kkoepke]

Thats a great extension and i really like ist. But i cant find out where the order of the suggested products come from an how to take influence to it.

Problem is, that mostly on top are some accessorories or less important articles and the really important products are shown last or even not. Any idea?

Good idea 👍

Should be somewhat easy to implement by adding ->setOrder('propertyxyz', 'DESC'); to the ->getCollection() calls. Probably make the sort field available to the backend admin configuration in another step.

I am going to fork the original repo now, integrate the patches from @jreinke, add a composer.json and start working on this. If it's quickly solvable I'll push a patch later..

I implemented a simple ASC sort in my fork:

What suggestions do you have? What is a "really important" product for you? Thinking of getting the best selling this might lead to delays in the db requests as we would need to check the reports tables too.

Probably just prefer the "newly added" products?

Feel free to test my fork, it includes an ajax live search instead of prefetch/remote what has been implemented by @jreinke before.
