Display products for a category, sorted by post_excerpt

If you take a look at the WordPress Codex ‘post_excerpt’ is not a valid parameter for the ‘orderby’ parameter

For this reason it cannot be done through WP_Query(). If you don’t mind, why are you trying to sort by post_excerpt in the first place?
