Faceted search display UX #119

Closed jenniferlin15 closed 9 years ago

jenniferlin15 commented 9 years ago

1) Sort functionality needs to be corrected to the original display since it's not the same type of activity as select/unselect articles. sort

2) The font color for the text: "The [X] articles on this page have been selected..." should be corrected to dark gray. The same with the article type/metadata links for each article. grey font

3) On the faceted search display in left column, do not display the "See all" or "Hide all" link if all options are displayed. (Otherwise, clicking on the link does nothing.)

4) I'd like to create a way to remove the filter. Currently, users would have to create an entirely different search to go back to a previous search (with all its sort parameters), which is tedious. We could do this by adding a small X button to the right of each search option. If users click on it, they remove the filter. LinkedIn has a slightly different implementation which also works where unchecking the facet will remove the filter (checkboxes to the right of the search options).

  1. Something's broken there, I see it a bit differently: image Yes, agreed, I'll separate it from the select, unselect functionality.
  2. Agreed.
  3. Agreed.
  4. Agreed, I'll figure something out in terms of UX. The back-end code for filter/facet deselecting is already in place.

UI looks like this now:
