Description Chris Hall 2012-06-27 01:37:09 UTC
Sorting by year in opac lists doesn't work due to trying to use biblioitems.publicationyear which is not mapped in the default MARC21 mapping.

My patch passes through the sorting field and will change 'year' to 'copyrightdate' to instead sort by biblio.copyrightdate (marc 260$c).

Patch incoming (have to get bug number first).

[SIGNED-OFF] bug 8323 fixing year sorting of a list

Signed-off-by: Marc Veron <veron@veron.ch>

Works as expected.

Caveat: If you edit the list in Opac, change the sort and then klick 'Save',
the List always is displayed in title order. This is du to the fact that
save calls opac-shelves.pl?viewshelf=4 without the sort parameter (defaults
to 'title').
If you go back to lists, choose the list from List name, the param is
correct and the list displays in expected order.

It took quite a time to track  that down, I first thought that opac-shelves.pl
was broken.

However, current bug 8323 is not affected, signing off.

Opend a bug for wrong sort order just after editing (8324).

QA comment:
 * Having to do $sortfield eq 'year' ? 'copyrightdate' : $sortfield proves that there's something wrong in the parameters. It's not in the scope of this patch to fix this, but if you want to provide a follow-up to have 'copyrightdate' in $sortfield instead of year, you'll be welcomed !

Otherwise, tiny patch, passes QA
