MADS fields not showing up in Views sort criteria

[Mark Jordan]

Hi everyone,

We're probably missing something obvious, but we want to create a View of our Scholar entities where the entries are sorted by family name. Problem is that none of the MADS elements are showing up in Views' sort criteria. How have people created sorted views of their people entities? UPEI has one for example - https://islandscholar.ca/scholars.

Hi Mark,

We use the following in MADS:

<mads xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.loc.gov/mads/v2 http://www.loc.gov/standards/mads/mads.xsd">
  <authority>
    <name type="personal">
      <namePart type="given">Donald</namePart>
      <namePart type="family">Moses</namePart>
    </name>
    <titleInfo>
      <title>Donald Moses</title>
    </titleInfo>
  </authority>
</mads>

We use a modified MADS-to-solr xslt, attached, that puts the first personal name in to single valued fields.

Thanks Rosie. I was suspecting that none of the MADS fields were showing up in the sort criteria because they are all "_m" (multivalued); if that is why they are not, your single-value modification is probably the secret sauce I'm seeking. I'll try it over the weekend to see what happens (can't touch the production site now).

Thanks!

Mark

Rosie, thanks very much, your stylesheet did the trick.
