Hi David,
The counts are "incorrect" because the artist and artwork facets work on
different collections. As the artists collection is the base collection then
changes to the artist facets effect both artist and artwork collections and
facets correctly. However changes to the artwork facets do not effect the
artist collection and facets. I have done it this way so that the counts for
the artist facets relate to the artist items and the counts for the artwork
facets relate to the artworks.
I've had a discourse with David Huynh about this issue. I'm guessing the
exception is being thrown because I am not really using Exhibit correctly; in
order to get the appropriate facet value counts. However I thought I'd report
the exception.
