Reorder my shop page
The top of your shop page is your shop window — and if your best work is buried three scrolls down, most visitors never see it. On a bernard-hosted site you change the order by describing it.
How it works
- Tell Bernard. Log in, open your site, and describe the order you want — or use the prompt below.
- Or use your own AI. Prefer ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini? Connect it once in Use your own AI (a one-time MCP setup), then ask there — same result.
- Approve. Either way you get a preview. Check the new order reads well, press Approve, and it's live.
You don't need to spell out every position — "newest first, but keep the large canvases at the top" is exactly the kind of instruction that works well. While you're rearranging, it's a good moment to check the first row's photos earn their place (Use better product photos).
If reordering isn't enough — the page is simply carrying too much — group the products into collections instead, so buyers browse by kind rather than scroll the lot (Group my products into collections).
The prompt
“Reorder my shop page so that [the pieces you want first] appear at the top, with the rest following [newest first / by price / your preferred order].”
The [bracketed] parts are yours to fill in. First time? Connect bernard to your AI over MCP — a one-time setup in bernard → your site → Use your own AI — then paste the prompt above.
Questions people ask
- How do I change the order of products on my website?
- If your site is hosted with bernard, describe the order you want — to Bernard in your dashboard, or to the AI you already use, ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. The entries are rearranged without changing their content, and you see a preview to approve.
- What order should products go in on a shop page?
- Lead with the work you most want to sell or be known for — visitors judge the page by its first row. Newest-first is a good default; put a particular piece at the top for an exhibition or a sale.
- What if I don't like the new order?
- Nothing goes live until you press Approve on the preview, so just reject it and describe a different order. And bernard keeps a full year of history, so any published change can be put back.
