Working with SharePoint 2013, I got a requirement from
client to implement a search query web part. We have to display the items
depending on the modified date. Everything in my content search web part is
working as expected. But I am unable to see items modified today.
I have started full crawl again but results are not
showing as expected. By checking the Content Search Web part settings, in sorting
section we can see the field for date modified as “lastModifiedTime” applied
the search filter. I got same results as earlier.
After digging into deep, instead of changing
out of box settings, created new one in SharePoint search with Name Modified
as shown image below.
Creating the search, started SharePoint full crawl and In
Content Search Web part settings, changed Modified managed property.
Super, It worked for me. Now I am able to see the items in CSWP in sorting order.
