---

A module to re-apply the relevance ordering for configurable attribute options in Magento CE 1.9.1, 1.9.2 or EE 1.14.2.

Why? The logic was changed in the recent version of core Magento to avoid nested foreach statements, but in turn lost the relevance ordering in favour of ordering by the attribute IDs.

You can use this extension module to restore to relevance ordering until the core resource model has been updated by Magento.
