If I get some free time this weekend, I'd like to try what you have and go from there. What would I need to do to try it? It's been some time since I built my facet menu, so off hand I don't recall every use case.
What I do recall was the need to limit the results returned. So what you see on the live site is maybe 5 results out of say 100. To get to those 5 I was picking them based on the highest count and then ordering them alphabetically. This very well may not be the job of the faceting engine but rather my responsibility.
Another thing that comes to mind is if a user has two items in a facet selected out of say 5. Lets use the example two vehicle makes, Ford and Chevy while 3 others, Honda, Nissan Toyota are left unelected. I would expect all 5 makes to some be returned with proper counts, but other facets such as model be filted by the Ford Chevy.
If the Ford and Chevy make is selected as the active filters I would expect to see only Ford and Chevy models. If u select for example corvette I don't think I'd want to see the Ford make removed from the make facet nor would I want to see all the other models such as Tahoe, mustang removed from the model list.
Perhaps my thinking is incorrect, but it almost seems as if we need to be able to chain The facets together in some sort of order.
Again, I'm not sure where the cut off is for the faceting library and where I need to do the rest on my own.
Hope some of this feedback helps, feel free to play with the site to get a visual representation of what im suggesting. On Apr 16, 2015 4:21 PM, "Hardy Ferentschik (JIRA)" <
