How do I implement a default_scope order when I'm using searchkick?

Before I implemented searchkick/elasticsearch on my rails app, the default_scope -> { order(created_at: :desc) } works. But after implementing searchkick/elasticsearch, it doesn't work anymore.

Since Searchkick is a whole separate process, it won't know about your Rails stuff. What I would say is if you write a helper method or class you can have it apply that scope to the options you pass in so that it always searches the same default scope.
