Sorting on Taxonomy Term not working as expected
On the Yale College site, the view that displays the content of our staff directory:
http://yalecollege.yale.edu/deans-office-directory?field_ycdo_department_tid=19&name=
Is set to sort by:
the taxonomy term: Residential College (asc),
as well as the taxonomy term: Special Flag (desc)
Our goal is to list the staff grouped by college, in alphabetical order, with the respective residential dean first, followed by the administrative assistant (AA).
The view was working fine until we added 2 additional taxonomy terms to the “Residential Colleges” vocabulary: Benjamin Franklin, and Pauli Murray (for the two new residential colleges).
http://yalecollege.yale.edu/admin/structure/taxonomy/residential_colleges
All taxonomy terms within the vocabulary are arranged in alphabetical order and with respective “weights”.
However, the view sorts with these two new taxonomy term groups listed last, instead of the correct alphabetical order.
We have used the “flush all caches” option, thinking something might just be hung, but that was met with no success.
Would there be any way someone could look into this for us?
Thank you!
*Update*: We resolved this issue.
What we had to do was add the Relationship under the View settings for “User: Residential College” (where Residential College was our taxonomy vocabulary). Once this was in place, we were able to set a sort criteria for “Taxonomy Term: Name” from the “Residential College” vocabulary. Using that sort criteria worked as intended.
