894122 - Make Editor - enable sorting by tag

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Webmaker Graveyard :: webmaker.org, defect)

Description

[Jacob [:Jacob]]

There's a lot of tweaks that can be done to make tagging and organizing easier, but I think the first thing we need to do is allow column sorting by tag

There's one issue that needs to be sorted out:

How do you alphabetically sort multiple tags with different order?

What I mean is let's say PROJECT A has the tags: "apple,boston,christopher"
And PROJECT B has the tags "apple, aardvark, boston"

You'll see that while both projects have similar tags apple and boston, the boston tag is listed third in PROJECT B and listed second in PROJECT A.

Therefore if you were to sort alphabetically, the two boston tagged projects won't match up near each other.

Anyways ... we can think through more of that later, but for now let's sort alphabetically starting with each word before the comma

Sorry, is this re: column sorting for the MakeAPI backend? Just trying to understand what you want re: alphabetical sorting.

No problem. Yes, asking for column sorting for the tag column in MakeAPI backend (otherwise known as Make Editor)

Ok, cool. Not sure what current status of being able to track 'views' per Make is, but it would be *amazing* to be able to sort by most-viewed Makes too. Mentor/content/comms teams would love this..
