Author Profile to have distinct visual representation #73

Open lukas-vlcek opened 10 years ago

Author profiles should have distinct visual representation when they are listed in search results.

When it comes to author names we should consider using sys_contributors[0] value instead of sys_title or some combination of them if they have different values.

For example Max Schwaab has a title (it is nick?) mxbs in his community profile. In this case it might make sense to display "mxbs (Max Schwaab)" as the title of the search hit in which case it could benefit from highlighting if the user query was "max". (But still it would require some changes in Elasticsearch mappings to get the highlighting work correctly in such case.)

Next example can be Nicolas Martignole having only nicmarti title in his profile.

Another interesting situation is when the author changes name (like female getting married). For example Jitka Kožaná was Jitka Kudrnáčová? Do we want to find her profile if the search query is "Kudrnacova"? And shall we display any visual indication (i.e. highlight) about why her profile matches?
