What happened?

Secondary sort by Title when sorting by Author was added in the last update, original issue #4380 (personally I think Publish Year is a better first fallback, but that's neither here nor there). This new secondary sort doesn't recognize ignored prefixes declared in the settings.

What did you expect to happen?

Use the Prefixes to Ignore setting when sorting by Author, the same as when sorting by Title.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Sort by Author
  2. Find Author with a book containing an ignored prefix

Audiobookshelf version

v2.25.1

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Other (list in "Additional Notes" box)

What OS is your Audiobookshelf server hosted from?

Linux

If the issue is being seen in the UI, what browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Firefox

Logs


Additional Notes

TrueNAS app install
