Magento Base URL is the URL used to access Store pages. You can set it on a per Store basis.

Before starting the changes please make sure that the domain you wish to use as a Base URL is already resolving to the IP-address of your Store (so either domain’s DNS servers or IP-address were set to Magenting’s servers). To verify that DNS changes are completed, you can open the domain name in your browser.

To change Magento Base URL you need to switch to Magento Admin Area and modify the Base URL option at System > Configuration > Web > Unsecure > Base URL and System > Configuration > Web > Secure > Base URL.

I’ll be clear… Magento is not good as you could imagine. In fact sucks in so many ways.

Today i’m showing you one. There is no backend option to change the Default Sort Order in your product listing (catalog).

Lucky there is an easy solution.

The Toolbar

Look for the file toolbar.php located in:

/app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Block/Product/List

Create the Local folder

Create the same folder structure in the local. Now the future upgrades will not affect your changes.

Should be like:

/app/code/local/Mage/Catalog/Block/Product/List

Edit the Toolbar

If you need to change the Price Range in your Magento catalog go to:

app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Model/Layer/Filter/Price.php

Look for the line:

Change the 10 for a lower / higher number.

Tested in the 1.4 version
