[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Staff interface customization - looking for documentation

[Noah Huffman]

Hi Kari,

I believe this is the file that controls which facets appear when browsing each record type:

https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/frontend/app/models/search_result_data.rb#L215-L257

To remove a facet you can just remove the name of the facet from the list of facets for that record type. You can also add or re-order facets this way. At Duke, we've made several changes to facets in the staff interface by overriding the file above using a plugin:

https://github.com/noahgh221/archivesspace-duke-plugins/blob/master/plugins/local/frontend/models/search_result_data.rb

I'm not sure how you would facet by decade, but I'd love to find out.

Hi,
Would someone point me to documentation about how to turn on/off the faceted info that shows up on the left hand side when Browsing?  For example, if we don't want the Subjects displaying how do we turn them off?   If we'd like to have dates by decade (rather than by quantity per year sorting) how do we do this?

Thanks!
