What's new

Every release of Rearrange Products, free and Pro.

6.1.0

Latest

New Features

  • New Stock-Aware Auto Push. A new setting shows out-of-stock products after in-stock ones on the shop, category pages and shortcodes, without changing your saved order. Backorders can be pushed too, and each category can follow the global setting or override it
  • New List and grid view switch on the Sort by Products and Sort by Categories pages, with grid view as the default
  • New Pro Scheduled Sorting. Apply a saved preset between a start and an end date, then go back to your regular order or keep the new one
