This one is quite unusual and just seeing if anyone else ran into this before:
two users accounts, one has admin role and one archivist. archivist role basically just hides object types that are not relevant
When archivist is running advanced search in Providence, some fields in the search results are not sortable.
When admin does the same thing, the fields are sortable.
Same display.
Same theme.
Same search and data.
On the archivist computer I logged out and logged in as myself and the fields are sortable.
I went through the metadata field settings, the access control settings and I do not see anything that would be causing this. The "can be used for sorting" option is checked.
As the archivist role, when it is not sorting, when inspecting the element in the browser I see that the class for the table header element is "list-header-nosort". There are no JavaScript errors.
Any ideas?
