     $count = $_COOKIE['shop_pageResults'];

    setcookie('shop_pageResults', $_POST['woocommerce-sort-by-columns'], time()+1209600, '/', 'your-web-address.com', false); //this will fail if any part of page has been output- hope this works!
    $count = $_POST['woocommerce-sort-by-columns'];
  }
  // else normal page load and no cookie
  return $count;
}

add_filter('loop_shop_per_page','dl_sort_by_page');
add_action( 'woocommerce_before_shop_loop', 'woocommerce_catalog_page_ordering', 20 );

Sorry about that. Above is the code. It seems that there is some .js or cookie conflict between this function and salient, as it works on the tweenty13 theme in wordpress. If you guys could point me in a hint of the right direction that would be huge, as I've seen a lot of desire for this kind of functionality inside the woocommerce plugin, which they have yet to proprietarily address.

Best,
