How to sort products by order in List Products?

Hello again,
Using the latest 5.9.2, I wanted to set the product sort order by default to "Predefined" like in the configuration. However, when the page displays, I only see all options except Predefined, unless I have another issue elsewhere.....

Looked at default_config.php where I could see :

$config->sorting_products_field_select = array(
1=>'name',
2=>'prod.product_price',
3=>'prod.product_date_added',
5=>'prod.average_rating',
6=>'prod.hits',
4=>'pr_cat.product_ordering' <===== This is the one I need but cannot see in list_products
);

How and where can I make the change so that I can see option 4 (product_ordering)?
Thanks

Philippe

product_ordering - works only for category.

Hmmm
In my production site which works with a sort of 5.4, the same screen allowed to use predefined sorting based on product ordering...
Could you point me to where I could possibly hack this and restore sorting based on order ? Or is there a way to display products based on the category as you indicate it?
Thx

Hi,
I understand what you say but the only problem is I don't see any "Ordering" column in products list (see image attached).
All I need is to predefine ordering and display products using List Products according to "Predefined" order
Thx

OOOPS, OK...It's my mistake...
I was trying to use List Products instead of Category in my menu item!!!

Sorry and confused :-(

Thanks for helping out!
