From the developer docs: relation (string) – The logical relationship between each inner meta_query array when there is more than one. Possible values are ‘AND’, ‘OR’. Do not use with a single inner meta_query array. (Emphasis mine). It’s a bit hacky, but you could run a separate query against the meta field, then merge the … Read more
Fixing a small typo should be it (untested): add_action( ‘elementor/query/latest-posts-home’, function ( $query ) { $query->set( ‘post_type’, array( ‘alicorn_case_studies’, ‘post’ ) ); } ); The parameter post-type should be post_type.
This is because have_posts() is for the main loop, and not your custom query. Prefixing each use of have_posts() and the_post() with $WatchListQuery-> will fix it: if ( $WatchListQuery->have_posts() ) { while ( $WatchListQuery->have_posts() : $WatchListQuery->the_post();
Your $count++ needs to be after your endif statement. It’s not counting up because your counter is always at 0 which means you’re always in your “if” portion of your statement not your “else”. Like this: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘post_per_page’ => 3, ); <?php $loop = new WP_Query($args); $count = 0; while … Read more
In your code, get_current_user_id() will return 0 because this hook fires after the logout has happened, ie, there is no current user ID. If you want the $user_id to be available to your function, you have to pass it in. Note: the $user_id parameter was added in WordPress 5.5.0. If you’re using an older version, … Read more
In WordPress 6.2+, within WP_Query you can set search_columns parameter (not documented at time of writing) to specify the fields to search: $query = new WP_Query( array( ‘s’ => ‘search term’, ‘search_columns’ => array( ‘post_content’, ‘post_name’, ‘post_title’ ), ) ); You can also use the post_search_columns filter to adjust the search columns. You may need … Read more
I don’t think it will be possible using the User Query Class and probably not through MySQL either, because WordPress saves Arrays as Serialized data, so MySQL can’t interpret it like it could if it was a JSON format. The only solution I can foresee is ordering it yourself using a loop in PHP – … Read more
Mapping the page to a WordPress user is the best approach. An ACF User field to select the user would give you the author ID, which can then be used easily in a WP_Query instance.
WP_Query does not handle this sort of query: use two instances of WP_Query, and then combine the results. Untested code: $posts = new WP_Query( array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ) ); $post_ids = array_column( $posts->posts, ‘ID’ ); $author = new WP_Query( array( ‘post_type’ => ‘any’, ‘author’ => 123, ‘post__not_in’ => $post_ids, // prevent duplicates ) ); … Read more
On the template driving your archive page, you can use the query_posts() function to adjust the main query (WordPress’ default main query, not your custom one). query_posts( array( ‘orderby’ => ‘modified’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’, ) ); Using the pre_get_posts action is the better method, though slightly more complex (untested, would go in theme’s functions.php or … Read more
