I would advise using the built-in ACF functions for this. Elliot has provided a full toolbox for you and documentation for all field types: <?php // Conditional statement (Single Value) if(get_field(‘page_layout’) == “col_1”) { //… } //Conditional statement (Multiple Values) if( in_array( ‘col_1’, get_field(‘page_layout’) ) ) { //… } ?> Check out the ACF documentation: … Read more
Your query seems to be fine and it should work. It’s not returning result probably because you are missing type parameter for ads_status field. So your code should be. <?php $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘banner’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 25, ‘meta_query’ => array( ‘relation’ => ‘AND’, array( ‘key’ => ‘ads_status’, ‘value’ => ‘1’, ‘type’ => ‘NUMERIC’, … Read more
Finally I found the real issue after few hours of debugging. I’m using simple fields to save the expire date and country values. So in simple field even we are not setting anything it is still save empty string in the database. So when I check the non existing fields, it is not giving correct … Read more
If I get it right you are storing this data in user meta. WP_Query would have no remote idea how to retrieve that, since it’s only aware of post meta. The two are completely separate and there is no native way to involve one in queries for another. Likely you will have to do this … Read more
First, the pre_get_posts hook is an action and not a filter. Then the meta_query parameter should contain the relation only if there is more than one inner meta_query array (codex). Finally you do not need to return the $query argument as it is passed by reference to your callback function. Your code should look like … Read more
You’re doing something like this tutorial on categorizing wordpress users, correct? I think you should do your filtering in your theme files, not on a hook. Just add an if statement to your template file (probably author.php) that tests if your custom fields aren’t empty strings, and then do whatever (404, redirect elsewhere, throw a … Read more
The way you are trying to do it is probably the wrong way. WP_Query does not have any build in feature to subtract the values from two custom fields and then returning (or ordering) posts according to the value of the subtraction from the two fields. You can probably filter the generated SQL via the … Read more
There is an interesting answer on SO which present different methods to resolve that issue: How do I query for posts by partial meta key? By custom SQL query (in my project I’ve used that solution) By changing the meta schema to store the dynamic meta_key as a meta_value By using the posts_where filter to … Read more
After some research on wp codex I found my solution. Here I have to change birth_date format during save. I saved value like yy-mm-dd this format and changed my meta_query Here is the code $studentdata = get_users( array( ‘meta_query’=> array( array( ‘key’ => ‘birth_date’, ‘value’ => array( $startyear.’-01-01′,$endyear.’-12-31′), ‘compare’ => ‘BETWEEN’, ) ), ‘role’=>’student’ ) … Read more
You need to setup multiple meta_queries using an array. Since you didn’t have a value you were looking for I’m just making sure that thePrice and thePrice2 are not blank. I set each meta query to a variable and then used them in the main orderby statement with a space between them. I wasn’t able … Read more
