This is controlled by a setting in dspace.cfg. The documentation for that section is here: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC/Configuration#Configuration-BrowseIndexConfiguration though I found parts of it quite hard to understand / incomplete. I assume what's set up in your dspace.cfg is something like this: webui.browse.index.1 = dateissued:metadata:dc.date.issued:date >From how I understand browse index configuration, what you need instead is this: webui.browse.index.1 = dateissued:item:dateissued and then further down, make sure you have something like this: webui.itemlist.sort-option.2 = dateissued:dc.date.issued:date This tells dspace that you want to be able to browse *items* by date issued, not *metadata values* for date issued. The numbers in these lines may have to be different depending on your set-up. The note from the documentation page still applies: > If you are customizing this list beyond the default, you will need to > insert the text you wish to appear in the navigation and on link and > buttons. You need to edit the Messages.properties file. The form of > the parameter(s) in the file: browse.type.<index name> Messages.properties file is used in jspui; in xmlui you'll need to use messages.xml (or as appropriate for the languages of your repository interface).
