Why Does an Online Store Show the Wrong Product Sort Order?

Sort behavior can differ because of default settings, availability ranking, personalization, stale indexes, or hidden tie-breaking rules.

Checks to make

Compare sort selection with actual result order, inspect product sort fields and index freshness, and test with a controlled category and account. Check whether unavailable products or pinned items are intentionally placed differently.
