Sort Facets alphabetically #196

Open gibsonjc opened 7 years ago

SXU - Facets – sort by alpha in addition to frequency? Is it possible to have the search result facets also be sortable by alpha? Many users know they want a specific author name/title/location … so it is not reasonable to have to scroll through a frequency list to have to find specific results.

If you click "more ..." at the bottom of a facet box, and then click "see all ..." at the bottom of that, a pop-up window will appear with all facet values, and at the top of that there is the option to sort by "Result Count" or "Alphabetical".

For the Institution and Location facets, the alphabetical sort is by library three-letter CODE or Location CODE, respectively, not by the display name.

Can we locally define facets? Can we reorder them? and can we not display some facets, such as location: CARLI ebooks, Ebooks, HathiTrust -- these distinctions aren't very useful for most of our patrons.
