Yes, the ordering should be on name. But it should search on the other fields, surely? The way it does when you order by recently active, say?
Currently (straight out of the box default theme) it applies the search terms to all the extended profile fields if you order by anything other than alphabetical. If you order by alphabetical, it applies the search terms to the name only.
So if you keep the same search terms, but choose a different ordering, you get different members showing. This is counter intuitive, to say the least.
Sorry, I’ve made a child theme for the default buddypress theme. But the same happens when I activate the default buddypress theme too. The site is being developed locally at the moment, so I can’t give a link.
I just wondered if anyone had ever come across anything similar.
