Changing course sort order on the courses page

Development
1

Using Course order on Discover New page we were able to apply a course sort order by start date on the dashboard landing however we would like to apply the sorting on the courses page.

Please could you provide guidance on how to implement / which function to change

Thanks!

We want exactly the same thing. Have you found anything out in the meantime? Thanks!

Hi @Nitin_Vaishwade @MaartenGH ,
Recently, a pull request was merged in edx-search (PR #205) and released in a new version.
With this update, the setting:

ENABLE_COURSE_SORTING_BY_START_DATE = True

now works for both:

  • Course templates pages

  • Discovery (catalog) pages(/courses)

Previously, the sorting by start date was only applied on the Course templates pages, but not on the Discovery (catalog) pages(/courses). With the latest release of edx-search, the functionality is consistent across both views.
