    How are the results ordered?

    The Sort by feature provides four options:

    • By date – sorts results by product release date starting with the most recent.
    • By most popular – gives priority to results that are most frequently selected by users, followed by the most recent.
    • By relevance is only needed or beneficial when you use the search box and submit a search query. Results are ordered by a combination of where the search term appears in the content, e.g., if it appears in the title, it likely means the product is more relevant to your search; how up to date or new the content in the product is; how popular the product is; and other factors.
    • By title – sorts results alphabetically.
