Thanks for looking into the following note and providing a solution. I read the updated information and have a couple questions. The answers to this are not-obvious to users, so it may be good to include some details in the blog for those of us who are not developing your product.

1) Does this require any updates or new uploads? If so, which plugins/components need to be updated? What version is it available?

2) Does this only work with certain version(s) to YTP?  If so, it may be good to mention that in the blog article.

I added instructions on how to use the new element in the new version of our YTP plugin.

OK great. I installed and tested it. It works well.

Is there a way to add a space between the "Sort by:" and the Sorting rule?  Currently it looks like "Sort by:Title descending". It should be
"Sort by: Title Descending"

In the Menu > Sorting Rules the Sorting Direction "Descending" the D is capitalized. But in the sorting fields element, it presents as "descending"

This may not seem important to you as long as it functions well, but people who are putting money and hundreds of hours in developing a site that works and looks good, these details matter.

Thanks!

Awesome, thanks.  Just in case anyone in the future wants to do this with clearer instructions (Joomla 5.x):

 Step by step:

1. Go to System → Manage → Language Overrides.

2. In the dropdown, choose English (United Kingdom) – Site (or your site defualt language) if this text is on the public-facing page.

3. Click New.

4. In Language Constant, enter COM_FINDER_SORT_BY.

5. In Text, enter Sort By: with one space after the colon.

6. Click Save & Close.

7. Click New to create another override.

8. In Language Constant, enter COM_JFILTERS_DESC_LABEL (for text "Descending") or COM_JFILTERS_ASC_LABEL (for text "Ascending") 

9. In Text, enter Title Descending or Ascending

10. Save, then click Clear Cache and reload the page you are testing. Joomla’s Overrides screen includes cache clearing because old strings may persist until cache is cleared.
