You might be able to use the query filter hook See this WPSE answer Basically, you can do something like: add_filter( ‘query’, ‘your_filter_function’ ); function your_filter_function($query_sql) { // do something to $query_sql return $query_sql; } This will get called for every query, so you’ll need to test $query_sql to make sure it’s the query you … Read more
You have missed meta_value parameter. You can use like this : $today=date(‘Y-m-d’); $args = array( ‘numberposts’ => 10, ‘post_type’ => ‘events’, ‘meta_key’ => ‘event_date’, ‘meta_value >=’ => $today ); // get results $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
You could use the is_main_query Function : http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_main_query Happy Coding, Kuchenundkakao
Give this a try. It replaces query_posts(), which you should never use (it kills unicorns) with WP_Query. Basically it first queries your sticky posts and then, if there were less than your required 3 posts, it will perform another query for the relavent number of posts. /** Grab the sticky post ID’s */ $sticky = … Read more
I figured it out: $the_query = new WP_Query(array( “numberposts” => -1, “post_type” => “plays_events”, “meta_query” => array( array( “key” => “show_times_%_date”, “value” => $this_month . “[0-9]{2}”, “compare” => “REGEXP” ) ), ));
Try this: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 3, ‘meta_key’ => ‘post_views_count’, ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num’, ‘order’=> ‘ASC’, ‘date_query’ => array( array( ‘after’ => ’30 days ago’ ), ), ); $query = new WP_Query( $args ); You can’t directly order by met_key’s name, you need to use it the way it is above.
You second approach (EDIT 2) is quite buggy and inefficient unfortunately. Also, you are not going to do this in one query. As I already stated, you need to look at the approach in this answer I have recently done. You were almost there in your first edit, the only problem is, you cannot do … Read more
Turns out setting explicity posts per page did if for me.
The way I see it, you have three options: Store the global search data in $_SESSION Store the global data in a transient Run the query twice, with & without the post type filter I tried storing the array in a global variable and as soon as the page refreshes with the refined search results, … Read more
You can use meta_query, if you date information is saved in custom field. Like this: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => $custom_post_type, ‘posts_per_page’ => -1, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘event_date_and_time’, ‘value’ => current_time(‘Ymd’), ‘compare’ => ‘>=’ ) ), ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’ ); This code suppose you date is saved in YYYYMMDD … Read more
