Investigate: ES sort by multivalued field? #34

Closed jduss4 closed 5 years ago

jduss4 commented 7 years ago

In Solr you specify if a field is single or multivalued. Since in ES it is flexible, how would it look if a multivalued field was requested to sort by?

I think this could potentially wait til v2 because I'm not sure it's much of an issue for Cather at the moment

In implementation we probably don't want to allow sort on multivalued and instead build a field to sort on.
