Sitecore Tackled

Just a short and quick blogpost. I got an issue with my alphabetically sort.
This was because my field was tokenized and of type text in Solr. So I had to make the field Untokenized and returnType string. Fixed!

With Sitecore you can pretty easy sort by Ascending or Descending with LINQ to Sitecore
Just write an OrderBy or OrderByDescending with your field like so:

switch (direction)
{
  case SearchOrderDirection.Ascending:
    return queryable.OrderBy(i => i.Title);
  case SearchOrderDirection.Descending:
  default:
    return queryable.OrderByDescending(i => i.Title);
}

REMINDER: The field should be UNTOKENIZED and returnType string.
