This is not currently possible with query arguments alone (realm of filtering raw SQL query and such). If your task is not time-critical then I suggest to wait for upcoming WP 3.1 release. It will feature much more flexible querying capabilities for custom fields. See Advanced Metadata Queries for post on upcoming improvements.
Edit: Came back on this post much later but I am updating this with more correct information. The following code will allow you to display the value of a custom field anywhere in your theme or plugin, as long as you are getting the correct post ID to pass to it. You would need to … Read more
Currently the best way I know to handle that is the Posts 2 Posts plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/posts-to-posts/ Here’s an example showing how to set up the custom post types (if you already have them it’s more for other’s benefit who might be reading this) as well as the function call to p2p_register_connection_type() needed by the plugin … Read more
Your meta_query needs to be a nested array, like so; $args = array( ‘posts_per_page’ => ‘5’, ‘cat’ => ‘3’, ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘Featured List’, ‘value’ => ‘Yes’ ) ) ); And I get the feeling you don’t actually need a LIKE match – this’ll perform a loose comparison, and … Read more
What about the “syndication_permalink”? This is automatically pulled from the feed by FeedWordpress. Then put something like <?php if (is_syndicated()) : ?> <p><a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/24222/<?php the_syndication_permalink(); ?>” target=”_blank”>Source</a></p> <?php endif; ?> in your single post loop.
so you’re images are already in a custom field? you could use the Get the Image plugin…. i know it will pull your thumbnail from a custom field and i think it might automatically set it as the featured image, tho it has been a while and i’m not sure of that. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/get-the-image/
You only need to define two post types: ‘piece’ and ‘person’ and a connection field ‘role’. See https://github.com/scribu/wp-posts-to-posts/wiki/Connection-information
I will answer myself after some research 🙂 while there might be appropriate ways of coding this with some custom function, for me there’s no need to reinvent the wheel when there’s a neat plugin that does the job it’s called “advanced custom fields” http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/ it has a “repeater” to let admins add more fields … Read more
You can hook manage_users_columns to add (and I suppose remove) columns from the All users display. This tutorial details that. You might be able to hook user_edit_form_tag to do the trial vs not trial at the top…but I’m not sure, you’d have to tinker with it. I think you’ll probably end up having to use … Read more
If you always need all of post meta at once this is the way to do it. To access post meta for specific key use get_post_meta() that will retrieve value(s) and unserialize if needed.
