I’m having trouble sorting products by price from the search bar

Hi @itsupportacemsthailand!

You can try this solutution:

// Fix sorting products by price-desc in WooCommerce Search Results Page
add_action( 'woocommerce_product_query', function( $query ) {
	if ( ! is_admin() && $query->is_main_query() && is_post_type_archive( 'product' ) ) {
		$orderby = get_query_var( 'orderby' );

		if ( 'price-desc' === $orderby ) {
			$query->set( 'orderby', 'meta_value_num' );
			$query->set( 'meta_key', '_price' );
			$query->set( 'order', 'DESC' );
		}
	}
} );

You have two ways to add this code to your theme:

1. Open the functions.php in your child theme and add the code at the end.
2. or install the Code Snippets plugin and apply this code as a snippet.

It seems the code still doesn’t work. There is still an error display.

Hi @itsupportacemsthailand!

It looks like the code is not working because the orderby parameter is likely being controlled by your theme, page builder, or a filtering plugin. To identify the cause, I suggest the following steps:

1. Deactivate each plugin one by one (especially any related to filters) to see if the sorting starts working correctly. Then check if the filters you are using are compatible with FiboSearch. We are compatible with:

• FiboFilters
• FacetWP
• Advanced AJAX Product Filters
• Product Filters for WooCommerce
• HUSKY (formerly WOOF) – Products Filter for WooCommerce
• WooCommerce Product Filter
• Product Filter for WooCommerce JetSmartFilters
• Acsell Product Filters
• You can read more about it here:?https://fibosearch.com/documentation/plugins-integrations/compatible-filter-plugins/

1. ?Change your theme to a default WooCommerce-compatible theme like Storefront and check if the issue persists.
2. ?Check the theme documentation to see if it has built-in sorting or filtering functions that might affect the results.

Once you’ve tried these, you’ll have a better idea of what’s causing the issue and how to address it.

Best regards,
Kris
