The Visual Merchandiser is a set of advanced tools that allows you to position products and apply conditions that determine which products appear in the category listing. The result can be a dynamic selection of products that adjusts to changes in the catalog. You can work in visual mode, which shows each product as a tile on a grid, or to work from a list of products in the category. The same tools are available in each mode and you can use the buttons in the upper-right corner to toggle between each type of display.

Category products in tile view

Access the Visual Merchandiser

On the Admin sidebar, go to Catalog > Categories.
Drill down through the category tree and click the category that you want to edit.
Scroll down and expand the Products in Category section.
Click the View as Tiles ( ) button to display the products as a grid.
When complete, click Save Category.

Change the position of a product

Use the sort order to view the product that you want to move.
- Method 1: Drag and Drop
  
  Grab the Drag ( ) control in the upper-right corner of the product tile and drop the product into position. The number of each product adjusts to reflect the new position.
- Method 2: Set Position Value
  
  In the Position controller ( ) on the product tile, enter the number where you want the product to appear. Enter 0 to place the product at the top of the list.
When complete, click Save Category.

NOTE

In a clean installation, Adobe Commerce reserves the category ID 2 for the root catalog of the default store. Visual Merchandiser can use only categories with an ID number of 3 or greater.
