Thanks!

Are you able to show us what you have done, or is it too complex to show here? Code must go inside code tags.

Hey Davide!

Sorry for the delay – hectic couple of weeks.

Try this:

// Relabel Co-Authors in Search & Filter

	function filter_function_name($input_object, $sfid) {

		if ($input_object['name'] == '_sft_author') {

			global $coauthors_plus;
			
			// Update option labels before rendering

				foreach($input_object['options'] as $key => $option) {

					// Rename "all items" label - this is always the option with no value

					if($option->value=="") {

							$option->label = "All Authors";

						}

					else {

						$user = $coauthors_plus->get_coauthor_by( 'user_nicename', $option->value );

						$input_object['options'][$key]->label = $user->last_name . ', ' . $user->first_name . ' ' . ' (' . $option->count . ')';

	    			}

	        	}

	        	$sortArray = array(); 

	        	foreach($input_object['options'] as $option) { 

				    foreach($option as $key => $value) { 

				        if(!isset($sortArray[$key])) { 

				            $sortArray[$key] = array(); 

				        } 

				        $sortArray[$key][] = $value; 

				    }

				}

	        	$orderby = "label";

				array_multisort($sortArray[$orderby],SORT_ASC,$input_object['options']); 

		}
		
		// Return

			return $input_object;

	}

	add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'filter_function_name', 10, 2);

I come back on the subject.

Code proposed by Jon works good, but with a minor flaw: The “All Items” option gets ordered alphabetically like all the Authors names, instead of staying on top of the list as it should.

Is there a quick workaround for this available? Thanks guys.

Are you able to send me a live link/URL to your search page so I can take a look?

Are you using the exact code as above, or your variation? If it is different, can you add your code to the post, between backticks?

Backtick is the lower case key of tilde (~) next to the “1” (depends on keyboard what the key looks like), but like this:

backtick your code backtick

Does the code you use still have this line?

$option->label = "All Authors";

or did you change this to:

$option->label = "Tutti gli Autori";

If you DID make this change, what happens if you instead comment out this line?
