The default sort is alphabetical. Is there way to stop it from doing this and to sort by weight (not the weight of the product: -10 to 10 style used to order stuff?) The only weight i saw in the product edit page is for shipping weight.
Product sorting in catalog

You might want to use either "nodeorder" or "Node Queue" depending on how you set up your shop/catalog.
I'm using node queue to build my catalog.
Both modules are available on drupal.org
Ubercart does not support this yet. We are definitely working on this. Perhaps Ryan or Lyle can add this to there battle plan and give you a better idea of when it will be available. It should happen in the next month for sure.
Peace,

I'll have a look at those modules. Thanks!
i couldn't get node order to work correctly. i am working with the "weight" module, but it doesn't seem to have an effect. in the uc_product table is there a way to add an invisible field so i can put the weight there. is there something in the code that tells tapir the default sort? i'm going to check it a bit, but if someone knows off the top of their head...
Thanks to the developers for a great product. Wondering if there are plans to have Ubercart keep track of best sellers, and also to have Ubercart sort products according to their popularity?
go to admin/store/settings/tables/uc_product_table (tapir settings) and change the display order changing which field is showing first (example, set weight of price to -4, or any other value under the rest to order by price).
Maybe add an option in Ubercart settings for selecting sorting field and store it as variable_set('uc_catalog_sort_field',$value)?
And after that modify uc_catalog.module from
<?php
if (empty($_REQUEST['order'])){
$order = 'p.ordering, n.title';
}
?>to
<?php
if (empty($_REQUEST['order'])){
$order = variable_get('uc_catalog_sort_field','p.ordering').', n.title';
}
?>For example, for using nodeorder sorting method you can set variable as variable_set('uc_catalog_sort_field','tn.weight_in_tid').
