Creating a sorting strategy

You can create a sorting strategy from a starter or from scratch.

Considerations for creating a sorting strategy

Section titled “Considerations for creating a sorting strategy”

Before you create a strategy, review the following considerations:

  • Saving doesn’t sort your collections. They’re sorted on your store schedule. On a new store, the first scheduled sort can start within minutes.
  • A collection follows one strategy. Adding a collection moves it from the strategy that it follows now.
  • A collection that Shopify sorts is skipped until you let Siftori sort it.

Create a strategy from a starter

Section titled “Create a strategy from a starter”

A starter fills in the strategy for you. You can change it before you save.
