The whole loop mechanism is based around having a filtered $posts array. So looking in The Loop documentation on multiple loops it gives a PHP explanation for the standard loop code you use: <?php if (have_posts()) : ?> <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <!– do stuff … –> <?php endwhile; ?> <?php endif; ?> … Read more
Best I can tell is that those default widgets get options from the database as their classes are constructed, so there’s no way to prevent the DB queries without disabling those widgets entirely. Depending on your needs, you may want that slight performance bump and do not need the widgets, in which case you can … Read more
If you want to and only need to do what @tf suggested, what is just to take care of displaying a 0 if no value is present, you can construct a function to do so like this: function wpse121165_return_carprice() { $ecpt_carprice = get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘ecpt_carprice’, true); if(! empty( $ecpt_carprice ) ){ return $ecpt_carprice; } else { … Read more
I’m no SQL expert, but I think it would look something like this: SELECT * FROM mydatabase.wp_users INNER JOIN mydatabase.wp_usermeta ON (wp_users.ID = wp_usermeta.user_id) WHERE 1=1 AND wp_users.user_registered > ‘2014-03-15 00:00:00’ AND wp_users.user_registered < ‘2014-03-16 00:00:00’ AND ( (wp_usermeta.meta_key = ‘wp_capabilities’ AND CAST(wp_usermeta.meta_value AS CHAR) LIKE ‘%\”subscriber\”%’) ) ORDER BY user_registered ASC ;
It is not advised to make use of custom SQL queries if there are functions in WordPress that already does the job. To accomplish this, you can simply make use of wp_get_object_terms(). The first parameter $object_ids takes a string or an array of object ID’s. In your case, you can make use of an array … Read more

wp_enqueue_media() slows down my WP site
I’ll post this as an answer, even though I don’t know much about caching. If you read about WP Object Cache it says: By default, the object cache is non-persistent. This means that data stored in the cache resides in memory only and only for the duration of the request. Cached data will not be … Read more
Yes, you can use two instances of WP_Query as long as you call the wp_reset_postdata function, just like you did in your code. You’re missing the while statement and posts_per_page for WP_Query array argument item. <?php $query = new WP_Query( array( ‘post_type’ => ‘item_a’, ‘posts_per_page’ => -1 /** Show all **/ ) ); if ( … Read more
I’m guessing it’s because you used order_by when it should actually be orderby – that order_by wasn’t just a typo in the question, right? And also, if the meta value is a date, then you should also set the meta_type parameter to DATE so that the sorting works as expected. So try with: $the_query = … Read more
