Add Count for Search Facets #1831

Open acouch opened 6 months ago

acouch commented 6 months ago

Summary

Search pages with facets typically provide the number of results so that users can understand the size of the collection of results represented by a facet.

The count is a feature of elastic search and other search engines, which we will be adding in the near future.

This would need to be included in the design and API before implementing.

This will likely need sub-tasks for both the design, API and enabled in the search engine, so it is not a single task.

Acceptance criteria

@andycochran Do we have designs for this?

andycochran commented 1 month ago

We do not have designs for facets. The counts we have in the design are for indicating how many options are selected in UI elements that can be collapsed. We would need to redesign the experience around facets instead of always showing all options. This should not be prioritized/considered until after usability testing what we've already built.
