Issue/Request: 

Our A-Z directory is still not working and we had been promised that someone would take a look.

Thank you.

Hi Yvonne,

I’d like to schedule a phone call with you so that we may discuss the 2 issues you want addressed. I am available most times tomorrow, if that works for you. Please let me know the best time and number to call you. This way I can get a better understanding of the changes that you need. Also, it would be best if you could add me as an admin to your site before our call, so that I can take a look at how things are built in order to best advise you on changes. My NetID is ct546. Please let me know when you have added me as an admin to your site.

I am looking forward to working with you.

Best regards,

Carris

Hi Yvonne,

I was able to resolve the issue, and successfully implemented the fix on your people listing. The issue was seemingly caused by an option in the view settings for the “A-Z attachment”. One of the settings, “inherit contextual filters”, needed to be enabled so that the directory could know the criteria by which to sort the people in the list. I enabled that, and the listing appears to be working the way you want.

Take some time to test it out for yourself, and let me know if you encounter any issues!

Best,
