Q&A: what is the order of products in related pro module?

PrestaShop user question

I've got questions related to your similar products pro module.
I understand there is no shuffling for core PS product lists. 

1. Is the module able to display these lists same way as it display products from categories? 
2. What products does it display, if they are not randomly selected?

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Hello,

below you can find answers for your questions

1. Yes it does. module uses product-list.tpl theme file to build list of products
2. It depends on what type of products module will show.

• If you will display "new produducts" - module will display always recent products from your store (from newest one to oldest one)
• if you will display "best sellers" - module will display best sellers (order way from most selled products)
• if you will display "selected products" - module will display products in order that you will define in the settings of the plugin
• if you will display "dropped prices products" - module will display products with discount (from newest one to oldest one)
• if you will display "cross selling products" - module will display list of products that will be a result of calculation (most selled products first)
• if you will display "search result products" - module will display list of products in default order way defined in your shop search settings.
