@birgire answer is fine (+1 from me), however $query->tax_query->queries can contain more than one taxonomy, and $query->tax_query->queries[0] can be the query for another taxonomy. So, if you want to set ‘include_children’ to false (note that it is a boolean argument) on the taxonomy ‘TAXONOMY NAME’, then you should be sure that you act on right … Read more
pre_get_posts triggers for every query (front and admin side). It also triggers when querying nav-menu items (which is what is happening here). Most of the time you only want to filter particular queries – so you need to check if that query is one you wish to modify. Usually – and I think your example … Read more
The reason your code isn’t working is because by the time archive.php runs, the pre_get_posts hook has already fired. You can easily accomplish the task in your functions.php file: add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘wpse_pre_get_posts’ ); function wpse_pre_get_posts( $query ) { remove_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘wpse_pre_get_posts’ ); //* $query->have_posts() will always return false from this hook //* So get the … Read more
The posts_request filter actually takes a second argument, which is the query. You can check if that query is the main query. Try this: add_filter( ‘posts_request’, ‘my_request_filter’, 10, 2 ); function my_request_filter($sql, $query) { if($query->is_main_query() && is_search()) { $sql=”some custom sql query” } return $sql; }
If you want to work with it just like with WP_Query, you can use this construction. $query = new Network_Query( array( ‘blog_id’ => array( 1, get_current_blog_id() ), ‘posts_per_page’ => 5, ‘date_query’ => array( ‘after’ => date(‘Y-m-d’, strtotime(‘-1130 days’)) ), ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘shows’, ‘value’ => $id, ‘compare’ => ‘LIKE’, ) ) ) … Read more
have you tried adding a second $query->set() ? function loop_current_month( $query ) { if ( $query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() ) { $query->set( ‘monthnum’, date(‘m’) ); $query->set( ‘year’, date(“Y”) ); } } add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘loop_current_month’ ); This should get all the posts from the current month or this year, note date(‘m’) and date(‘Y’)

Removing “s” from search with custom parameters
OK, so you have few mistakes in there. field can be term_id or slug, but not id. tax_query should be array of arrays and not an array. So here is fixed code: function exclude_category( $query ) { if ( is_user_logged_in() && $query->is_main_query() ) { $taxquery = array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘project-type’, ‘field’ => ‘term_id’, ‘terms’ … Read more
