Hi, first-time contributor. Can I try to work on this issue?

[rowasc]

Thank you for getting in touch.
Yes you can 🎉 . Tag @Angamanga or @rowasc if you get stuck :) Sorry for the delay!

[c3ho]

@rowasc any particular sort methods for the users you wanted? The only ones I can see at the moment would be alphabetical and roles.

I was thinking of adding a button, but reading the contributor thing I found the platform-pattern-library you guys have and will try to use the search and filter one that is listed

[Angamanga]

@c3ho Yes, alphabetical and roles would be a great start! Try with the search and filter-ui (its used it the map and data-view, you can peak at the code for that here: https://github.com/ushahidi/platform-client/tree/develop/app/main/posts/views/filters and more specifically here: https://github.com/ushahidi/platform-client/blob/develop/app/main/posts/views/filters/filters-dropdown.html). Thanks for looking into this 🎉 🎉

@Angamanga should i create a dropdown for sorting and have two options in it - alphabetical and roles ?

[Angamanga]

@himil-vasava Yes that sounds good 👍

[himil-vasava]

@Angamanga could you please elaborate on sorting according to roles.

[Angamanga]

@himil-vasava Roles is hard to sort, but we can filter them with checkboxes, i.e. if you select a specific role, only those users should be visible. Something like this:

[himil-vasava]

@Angamanga I think that feature is already there

[Angamanga]

@himil-vasava Ah, just add alphabetical sort then :)
