Hi Guys,

I am trying to play weith the new index and use the Fiel list type of facet.

I could not figure out how the Options are sorted.

In GetLoop("FacetOptions") I see there is a tag called "FacetOption.Sort" but it always return 0.

I was wondering if this is a version related issue or if I am doing something wrong.

I am using 8.8.0.6.

Thank you,
Adrian

Hi Adrian

Sort only has a value for Variant options and for list options from custom product fields of type list.

In later versions sorting has been changed to sort by name of the label. It uses a custom alpanumeric comparer to sort options as good as possible. something like this:

  1. 2XL
  2. 20
  3. 200 Small
  4. Alpha
  5. Some
  6. Zebra
