From what I understood from your question, you want to sort your result by the most rated custom field ‘rating’ which is assumed to be number. In order to do this you need to write the below wp_query argument and to handle it properly in your request. However the end result for your query should … Read more
If you want to use the values to sort or filter the data, you should keep them as separate entries.
Adding Columns to Admin To answer your first question, I recommend a plugin called Codepress Admin Columns. This is by far one of the easier and non-coding ways to implement columns. But it will set you back 15EUR to purchase the add-on that allows sorting. If you wish to get your hands dirty with code … Read more
So, first off, I would use get_posts instead of writing your own query. The strategy: fetch all the posts at once, then filter them using a callback or foreach loops. What follows is a PHP 5.3+ example (anonymous functions, etc). Let’s wrap all this up in a function that will take a post type, the … Read more
For starters, the ‘post_category’ argument only accepts category ID’s, so you will have to find that through your database, or through get_category_by_slug: $cat = get_category_by_slug( ‘music’ ); $cat_id = $cat->term_id; Secondly, look at your wp_handle_upload() section. You are passing $file[‘file’] in both cases, where ‘file’ is not the name of either of your upload fields. … Read more
Don’t use custom page templates for structural layout changes. Use custom post metadata instead, and then output conditional CSS rules (or even custom HTML markup, though that’s probably not necessary here) based on the value of the custom post metadata.
You can read a somewhat extensive tutorial over at: http://www.cozmoslabs.com/1012-wordpress-user-registration-template-and-custom-user-profile-fields/ Basically this is what you’re going to be using to add them to the backend: add_action( ‘show_user_profile’, ‘show_extra_profile_fields’, 10 ); add_action( ‘edit_user_profile’, ‘show_extra_profile_fields’, 10 ); function show_extra_profile_fields( $user ) { ?> <input type=”text” name=”twitter” value=”<?php echo esc_attr( get_the_author_meta( ‘twitter’, $user->ID ) ); ?>” /> <?php … Read more
(Just read the third link in your question. It looks like a line of code is missing on step #4. I don’t think there’s really a need to use the plugin.) There are two ways to do what you are requesting. 1) Learn what a metabox is, or 2) become acquainted with the custom fields … Read more
If you do this inside the main loop you can do something like this: while ( wpsc_have_custom_meta() ) : wpsc_the_custom_meta(); // Build an array of the custom meta data echo wpsc_custom_meta_name() .wpsc_custom_meta_value(); endwhile;
<?php $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘care-agency’, ‘meta_key’ => ‘wpcf-listtype’, ‘meta_value’ => ‘Enhanced Listing’ ); $loop = new WP_Query( $args); if ( $loop->have_posts() ) { while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); //Here goes my loopy stuff endwhile; } All taken from the codex on WP_Query.
