Product Variation Custom Sort Not Working

    Using “Ultra Theme” – Child theme.

    To troubleshoot, I have switched theme to TWENTY SIXTEEN” and have disabled all plugins (except for WC of course) – still the issue continues.

    Under PRODUCTS > ATTRIBUTES the default sort order is set to “Custom Ordering”.

    Under the individual product / variations, I have dragged the options into the order I would like, then saved and updated the page. See screenshot here: https://buwalda.ca/be-variations.jpg

    You can see from the above screenshot that the February date is the first one (in face they are all ordered by date.

    If you go to the sites front end and try to make a purchase, you will see that April is now at the top of the order? https://buwalda.ca/fe-variations.jpg

    I can’t seem to find any resolution on this anywhere? Is this a bug in Woocommerce or am I missing something? Or, maybe a work-around or a plugin that may help this?

    Thanks in advance for any help on this,

    Abe

    Actually, I realize that PRODUCT > ATTRIBUTES custom ordering has nothing to do with the variations sorting.

    For those that are still looking for help here, the order that you place variation within your individual product doesn’t make any difference.
    1. Go to Products>Attributes
    2. Look at the table of attributes, and see what is selected in “Order by”. You want “Custom Ordering” which you can get to by clicking the “edit” link under the name of the attribute.
    3. There is a dropdown menu of options for “Default sort order”. Select “Custom Ordering” and save.
    4. Back on the Products>Attributes menu. Click on the name of the attribute, or the cog icon to it’s right.
    5. You can drag and drop the individual terms in the order that you want.
