: Still one question, is there a way to change the sort order for date : range facets? Or do I do that on my end? There are some cases where I : want to see results in count order, other cases where I want to see : results sort on the button range.
There is no server side option to change the sort of range facets, precisely because it is just as easy/efficient to do it on the client side. (Solr has/had a general design ethos of "Only do on the servier side things that are not possible, or as efficient, to do on the client side) field faceting supports sorting because it's not possible (or efficient) to do on the client side (w/o fetching every possible term bucket) but query & range faceting already return all the buckets to the client, so there isn't much point in solr doing the soting -- it's just added time spent holding open that socket, and burning "expensive" (limited) Solr CPU vs more easily scalable client CPU> -Hoss http://www.lucidworks.com/
