Is it possible sort the products by "new" label on the product image.

Hi Elise,

Thank u very much for the reply. What is the meta key of “new” label on the product listing. I found some sorting code on the internet and it might work;

Can u please look at these codes; which I can add to the function. In this case now I can sort using “sale” – I felt that it might have same logic. I could be wrong, plz bear with me.

// SORT BY SALE
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_get_catalog_ordering_args’, ‘wcs_get_catalog_ordering_args’ );
function wcs_get_catalog_ordering_args( $args ) {

$orderby_value = isset( $_GET[‘orderby’] ) ? woocommerce_clean( $_GET[‘orderby’] ) : apply_filters( ‘woocommerce_default_catalog_orderby’, get_option( ‘woocommerce_default_catalog_orderby’ ) );
if ( ‘on_sale’ == $orderby_value ) {

$args[‘orderby’] = ‘meta_value_num’;
$args[‘order’] = ‘DESC’;
$args[‘meta_key’] = ‘_sale_price’;

}
return $args;
}
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_default_catalog_orderby_options’, ‘wcs_catalog_orderby’ );
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_catalog_orderby’, ‘wcs_catalog_orderby’ );
function wcs_catalog_orderby( $sortby ) {

$sortby[‘on_sale’] = ‘On Sale’;
return $sortby;
}

HI,

Can u plz – just tell me the meta_key of “new” label on the product listings. I will figure out the rest. When I checked Add “New” label in the product page. It displays the “New” label on the product listing. So can u please give the meta_key of it.

THanks in advance.

Thank u very much for the meta key. I used following code and it works like a charm 🙂

/**
* Adds WooCommerce catalog sorting options using postmeta, such as custom
**/
function skyverge_add_postmeta_ordering_args( $sort_args ) {

$orderby_value = isset( $_GET[‘orderby’] ) ? wc_clean( $_GET[‘orderby’] ) : apply_filters( ‘woocommerce_default_catalog_orderby’, get_option( ‘woocommerce_default_catalog_orderby’ ) );
switch( $orderby_value ) {

// Name your sortby key whatever you’d like; must correspond to the $sortby in the next function
case ‘new_label’:
$sort_args[‘orderby’] = ‘meta_value’;
// Sort by meta_value because we’re using alphabetic sorting
$sort_args[‘order’] = ‘asc’;
$sort_args[‘meta_key’] = ‘_woodmart_new_label’;
// use the meta key you’ve set for your custom field, i.e., something like “location” or “_wholesale_price”
break;
}

return $sort_args;
}
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_get_catalog_ordering_args’, ‘skyverge_add_postmeta_ordering_args’ );
// Add these new sorting arguments to the sortby options on the frontend
function skyverge_add_new_postmeta_orderby( $sortby ) {

// Adjust the text as desired
$sortby[‘new_label’] = __( ‘Шинээр ирсэн’, ‘woocommerce’ );

return $sortby;
}
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_default_catalog_orderby_options’, ‘skyverge_add_new_postmeta_orderby’ );
add_filter( ‘woocommerce_catalog_orderby’, ‘skyverge_add_new_postmeta_orderby’ );
