Search results display order.

Hi All :)

In what order are People search results displayed? And can this be changed?

The Extended view shows the results, and these "seem" to be showing the oldest members first, by date they joined.

Is there any way to change the order by Match % value? in descending order?

Cheers

Bump.

I would like to change the display order of the results of a search...Preferably by star rating.

Anyone know how to do this?

modules/boonex/profile_customize/classes/BxProfileCustomizeSearchResult.php

Line 58

    function getAlterOrder ()
    {
        return array(
            'order' => " ORDER BY `id`"
        );
    }
}

You can change the order of each module sites can be changed by changing

modules/boonex/sites/classes/BxSitesSearchResult.php

Line 415

 function getAlterOrder()
    {
        if ($this->aCurrent['sorting'] == 'sites_date')
            return array('order' => " ORDER BY `sites_date` DESC");
        else
            return array();
    }

Thanks, however this looks like it's not the correct area. These are modules, Profile Customizer and Sites. So it may change things but its not changing what I need.

I'm trying to change the order of the results in yoursitename.com/search.php

Maybe I could change something in the file inc/classes/BxDolSearch.php?

It would be nice if there were an area in the Admin panel, maybe Advanced Settings, that controlled the way search results are displayed. In bxdolsearch.php it shows values like 'rand', 'top' and 'score'...But I don't see anywhere in the admin panel that allows you to choose from these options.

The only thing that has shown any change at all is adding "&sort=activity" to the URL.

This is an easy fix, but I want it to be sorted by rating, and I can't find the syntax that works.

I can't believe how hard this is, changing the results of a search should be something easily available in the Admin panel...
