    Hi

    I am having issues with the default sorting of brands using your theme. I am using your template (which is great btw) for a Japanese Artist gallery. In place of brands, we have Artists and I need to list the artists by last name, first name alphabetically. Currently, the only way I see to order is first name, last name alphabetically.

    For example – a list is currently as such (listed alphabetically by first name):
    Atsumi Murata
    Bertha Lum
    Brian Williams
    Carol Jessen
    Chikanobu
    Clifton Karhu
    Daniel Kelly….

    Where I actually need it to be like this (listed alphabetically by last name):
    Chikanobu
    Carol Jessen
    Clifton Karhu
    Daniel Kelly
    Bertha Lum
    Atsumi Murata
    Brian Williams….

    This issue applies to the following sections on the home page:
    – Our Artists
    – Catalog (Featured, Recent Acquisitions, Archives) *Here everything is listed by the product not the brand (artist)

    This issue also applies to the following sections on the catalog pages (Recent Acquisitions, Archives, Online Catalog):
    – View by Artist (filter)

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Hello,

    Brand doesn’t have 2 separate fields for the first and last name. Brand is the 1 field that sorts information by the first word that you have there. We can implement you sort by the second word for the brand elements and widgets by some minor customization if you would not mind to give us 5 stars rating because additional customization is not included into basic support. We need your FTP access.

    If you want to add sort by brand option for the Products element it requires more additional customization and you can submit the customization request here.

    Regards

    Ok – for now I found an alternative solution, but I will consult with the client to confirm if they want it as explained above. Thank you for your quick reply and I believe I have already given a 5 star rating.
