Issue

A customer is unable to sort a catalog page by a custom attribute of the type Dropdown.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create about six simple products and assign them to a single category.

  2. Create a product attribute in order to add it as a sorting option on the listing pages.

    • Go to Admin > Stores > Attributes > Add New Attribute.

    • In the Properties tab, set the following:

      • Default Label = test

      • Catalog Input Type for Store Owner = Dropdown

      • Options:

        • first
        • second
        • third
        • fourth

    • In the Storefront Properties tab, set the following:

      • Used for sorting in product listing = Yes
      • Leave all the other options as Default.

  3. Assign the test attribute to the Default attribute set in Admin > Stores > Attributes > Attribute Set.

  4. Configure the products to have test attribute values.

    • SKU: s00001, test: fourth
    • SKU: s00002, test: third
    • SKU: s00003, test: second
    • SKU: s00004, test: first
    • SKU: s00005, test: fourth
    • SKU: s00006, test: third

  5. Reindex and clear cache.

  6. Go to the category on the storefront.

  7. Sort by the test attribute.

Expected results:

The products are sorted by the test attribute.

Actual results:

The products are not sorted by the test attribute.
