First of all, never use query_posts, ever. My emphasis. It is outright not meant to be used at all, and should be removed in future wordpress versions. Overall performance wise I would say it is even worse than a custom query. You should really be using WP_Query for the task at hand Note: This function … Read more
Order posts by meta_value even if meta_key is not filled
There really is no sane way to accomplish this, specially if you have posts that are assigned to more than one tag (which is almost always the case). What is very sure, you have you work cut out for you. Here are some thought and ideas you can persue: POSTS WITH MULTIPLE TERMS If posts … Read more
Like Eugene mentioned in his answer you need to run a query for each tag. I would create a foreach loop that went through each tag then queried the latest 2 posts from each. $tags = get_tags(); foreach ( $tags as $tag ) { echo ‘<h3>’ .$tag->name. ‘</h3>’; $tag_query = new WP_Query( array( ‘tag_id’ => … Read more
Well, I’m afraid it won’t work this way. Let me explain why… In your wpzen_change_post_order function you check if $query->is_main_query(). To be precise, this checks, if given query is main query for current page – the query generated by WP to display default posts for current page. So if you create your own WP_Query object, … Read more
As stated in my comment to the OP, you should make use of pre_get_posts to target change the query variables as needed before the main query is executed. Just a tip, pre_get_posts uses the same exact parameters as WP_Query, so you can have a look at those parameters and use them to construct your pre_get_post … Read more
Find the solution: The hole snippet looks like this: <?php function filter_next_post_sort($sort) { global $post; if (get_post_type($post) == ‘MyCustomPostType’) { $sort = “ORDER BY p.post_title ASC LIMIT 1”; } else{ $sort = “ORDER BY p.post_date ASC LIMIT 1”; } return $sort; } function filter_next_post_where($where) { global $post, $wpdb; if (get_post_type($post) == ‘MyCustomPostType’) { return $wpdb->prepare(“WHERE … Read more
Why don’t use built-in functionality of PHP? Put the following line right before the foreach: usort($members, create_function(‘$a, $b’, ‘return strnatcasecmp($a->last_name, $b->last_name);’)); References: usort create_function strnatcasecmp
As suggested by sri, I will answer my own question 🙂 The drag and drop of the meta boxes is for remembering the order of the meta boxes for each user, so if user A like to have meta box 5 on top because he uses that feature more, he doesn’t have to do move … Read more
1) Using only the posts_orderby filter: It looks like you want to order the movies by the minimum of the wpcf-showtime meta values. You can modify the ORDER BY part of the SQL generated by the WP_Query, by using the posts_orderby filter. Here’s an example: add_filter( ‘posts_orderby’, ‘wpse_posts_orderby’ ); $ongoing_movies = new WP_Query( $args ); … Read more
