Problem Symptoms

When running a search in the OPAC with relevance turned on, the sort order of results by relevance is not consistent after choosing a different sort method.

Defect Status

Issue 16384-10209 / VYG-1452 is resolved in Voyager 8.2.2 and higher.

Replication steps

1. Connect to the OPAC, and run a GKEY* search for ?holocaust?
2. Notice the results displayed, and their order
3. Change the sort option from relevance to Author, the results list should re-sort properly
4. Choose Relevance from the sort options, the list will re-sort, but not back to the way it was displayed in step 2
5. Now, choose Title, the list should re-sort again
6. Switch back to Relevance, and notice that the results are sorted in a way unique to steps 2 and 4.

Workaround

Re-execute original search
