There is now a bug and a patch from Aleisha waiting for a sign-off: *Bug 26472* <https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=26472> - Elasticsearch - ES - Authority record results not ordered correctly due to punctuation marks :) Katrin On 08.05.23 05:56, Aleisha Amohia wrote:
Hi all,
We have some unexpected sorting results happening when we search authority records. We are using Elasticsearch. Wondering if anyone has seen this before and knows a code fix or some Elasticsearch configuration required to fix it.
I've noticed this happens in upstream Koha too so might be a real bug, with Koha or Elasticsearch, I'm not sure which.
As an example, when we search for "political science" authorities with the 'heading ascending' sort order, these are the results:
1. Political science Philosophy 2. Political science Poetry 3. Political science 4. Political science Problems 5. Political science Quotations
We would expect Political science (#3 in the above results list) to show first, before the others.
Any ideas?
