Sorting Search Results by Section

I have tried adding <i>"sort_by", array("section", true())</i> to <i>{set search=fetch...</i> at the top of my advancedsearch.tpl template (which I know is overriding properly), but it continues to mix the results.

That also has the advantage of your being able to change the order of the sections appearing and excluding sections from searches. Regards, James
