One option is to add an additional field for sorting. Create a copy of the field you want to sort on and modify the data you insert there so that it will sort the way you want it to.

It doesn't sort å,ä and ö in the proper order. Also, is there any way to get Solr to sort, i.e, á, à or â together with the "regular" a's? Thanks in advance! // Joel
