# Collection sorting

Customers can choose to view products with various sort options on a Collection page:

<div data-full-width="true"><figure><img src="/files/FsNe3fEGoHNnNMHxLaZN" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

You can manage the default sort for each individual collection.&#x20;

## How to

In the Shopify Admin -> Products -> Collections, you can choose a Collection and modify the default display order:

### Manual sorting

To customize exactly the order in which products are displayed, use the sort type: Manually.

Use the drop-down, and change to "Manually":

Use the handle icon and then drag-and-drop to reposition the product order:

<div data-full-width="false"><figure><img src="/files/t3ZZebzolAmdX7nQlwWI" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

### Disable sorting options

You can hide the sorting controls by un-checking the "Show collection sorting" option in the section settings:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://pipeline.groupthought.com/collections/collection-pages/collection-sorting.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
