"As a Christian who is aware of ClaytonTV I want to be able to browse the video database with options to sort by topic, A-Z or bible book, so that I can find content that interests me. "
Details
This user is not searching for anything specific so wants to look through the full database, but a long list of videos is not user friendly so the list of videos should be displayed with different sorting options, and initially in a list of the subheadings of the sort criteria (e.g. for A-Z, show the letters of the alphabet and then clicking on a letter will display a list of videos and series whose titles begin with that letter.) Where videos are part of a series it would be better to display the series name rather than individual videos, and make clear that this is a series with a different colouration, bolding and preface of "series:".
Acceptance criteria
[ ] A link from the home page to a Browse page
[ ] The browse page (django view) needs to exist
[ ] The browse page will have a title along the lines of 'Browse our video content'
[ ] The default display needs to be determined, perhaps start with A-Z and once at testing stage check what sort option is most often used? (Also ask this in questionnaire sent to current users!)
[ ] There should be a 'Sort by:' option at the top of the page with a dropdown menu of sort options. These should include 'topic', 'bible book' at least.
[ ] When a sort by option is selected, the page should change to display the different field options for the sort option (e.g. bible books, topics) which should expand when clicked to show videos that match that criteria (e.g. click on 'Genesis' and all videos related to Genesis should display in date added order. (In A-Z alphabetical order should be maintained for the video & series list).
Estimation of work
Displaying the content will depend on database queries and formatting the results of these to display as desired. If this proves complex then can loose the 'click to expand' functionality for now and this will be accepted as complete if the click on the book/ letter/ topic sends you to a new page displaying all the results. The click to expand can be a stretch goal for this if it is being an issue.
