How to display search query as formatted text?

You’ll probably want filter out some parameters, change the order they’re displayed, etc – but this should get you started: $s = “/?s=Search&property_city=las-vegas&property_location=Nevada&min_price=20000&max_price=500000&beds=2&baths=3&min_area=1000&max_area=1000000&property_type=apartment&s=Search&apor=Any&apvr=Any&post_type=property”; parse_str($s,$parts); foreach ($parts as $key => $value) { $name = ucwords(str_replace(“_”,” “,$key)); echo “$name: $value<br />\n”; } You can probably just use foreach ($_REQUEST as $key => $value) { unless there’s a … Read more

How to pass >= condition filter to my year custom tax_query

You can pass an array of years to the tax_query (or use PHP range()). The default operator is IN – see https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_tax_query/__construct/#parameters $args = array( ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘year’, ‘field’ => ‘name’, ‘terms’ => range($min_year, $max_year) ) ) );

WP_query sort by custom meta_key “price”

Thanks to Brad Dalton at wpsites.net for getting me to the answer. Install Advanced Custom Fields plugin. Create a custom field called price, formatted as a number. Use the code below (based on Bill Erickson’s tutorial): add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘kr_change_posts_order’ ); function kr_change_posts_order( $query ) { if ( $query->is_main_query() && !is_admin() && !is_page() ) { $orderby … Read more

Please ensure me that I’m not crazy using the pre_get_posts [closed]

Perhaps you should try this: function rpm_pre_get_post($query){ if($query->is_main_query()){ $query->set(‘meta_query’, array( array( ‘key’ => ‘parent-project’, ‘value’ => ‘Metro-E’ ) ) ); } } add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘rpm_pre_get_post’, 9999 );

Trying to add function with pre_get_posts for plugin search [closed]

It’s hard to be sure without he error, but this part of code looks pretty weird: if ( is_post_type_archive( epl_all_post_types() == ‘true’ ) ) { is_post_type_archive gets one param and it should be post type or array of post types. But in your code you pass a logical statement in there (so true or false). … Read more

Why does this query not SELECT post IDs like a normal query would?

I’m not sure why you don’t want to use wp_Query? wp_Query is a very powerful function about retrieving various queries. First of all, pages in the blog do not relate with posts, so you won’t get any predefined post query for that page-template that you created. However there are a few ways to show post … Read more

Posts sortable column not sorting properly for custom field numbers

I figured it out after adding the same code to a different site I run. It was working fine on that site with the same theme and mostly the same plugins. I narrowed it down to another function I made (thankfully it wasn’t another plugin). The other function was sorting something on the front end, … Read more

Can I use $query->set() (in a pre_get_posts() hook) with a custom taxonomy in WP 3?

For what it’s worth, I just gave up on the ‘__not_in’ approach and went with the following somewhat sneaky solution: //Create the exclusion rule $new_tax_query = array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘x_category’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => array(‘y-slug’), ‘operator’ => ‘NOT IN’, ) ); //If there is already a tax_query, ‘AND’ our new rule with the … Read more

pre_get_posts returning unformatted page

The pre_get_posts action hook only allows you to modify the $query object . Any formatting or output of data is done in the template file within the loop. When you are in the loop you have access to various template tags that output the post data formatted (filters applied). if ( have_posts() ) : while … Read more

Filter multiple different main queries on custom pages

You can’t alter a page query via pre_get_posts (in any fashion I’ve tried) to something other than a page query. If you look at the generated SQL, it’s trying to query all your post types for a pagename of new. If you set pagename to null, it’ll return posts, but it will disregard any taxonomy … Read more
