it’s unclear when to use one or the other, or if they must be used at all If you’ve modified the global $wp_query variable (e.g. using query_posts() which should NOT actually be used), then use wp_reset_query() to restore the variable back to the main query, i.e. so that the variable references or points to the … Read more
I’m looking real hard at the code around both hooks, and they run one right after the other, with the same arguments, and I just can’t see any meaningful difference. Theoretically only parse_query would run, and not pre_get_posts, if WP_Query::parse_query() were to be run directly on its own, but WordPress itself never does that. Maybe … Read more
Glad that you managed to figure out a solution, which yes, does work. But you could make it more selectively, i.e. target just the specific pages, by using is_single( ‘<parent slug>/<child slug>’ ), e.g. is_single( ‘family-law/success-stories’ ) in your case. Secondly, it’s not exactly the redirect_canonical hook which caused the (301) redirect on singular paginated … Read more
You could do something like this add_action(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘bt_search_posts’); function bt_search_posts ($query) { // the posts ids that contain foo bar OR lorem ipsum dolor OR ping pong $posts_ids = []; // get the current query vars $query_vars = $query->query_vars; // loop each term we want to search and if found, add the post id into … Read more
In this situation you will want to use the meta_query parameter, an example: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘page’, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => $key, ‘value’ => array($min, $max), ‘compare’ => ‘BETWEEN’, ), ), ); $query = new WP_Query( $args ); The possible values for for the ‘compare’ key are: “=” … Read more
if you need to turn it into an array of IDs then it is already an array of IDs, you don’t need to do any work on it, it’s already in the perfect form to go straight into the terms parameter e.g. ‘terms’ => $terms, The only thing to be mindful about though, is that … Read more
You could use NOT EXISTS as the value for comparem, you could also check for empty value if thats relevant This code only checks if hidden meta does not exists $postsForSitemap = get_posts([ ‘numberposts’ => -1, ‘orderby’ => ‘modified’, ‘post_type’ => [‘post’, ‘page’], ‘order’ => ‘DESC’, ‘meta_key’ => ‘hidden’, ‘meta_compare’ => ‘NOT EXISTS’ ]; This … Read more
$keys = array_column($terms, ‘slug’); array_multisort($keys, SORT_ASC, $terms); That did the trick and let me sort terms in that muli array.
Couple of things to consider here: 1.) Try adding the meta query only if the value is present: $pairedThing = get_field(‘myThing’); $args = [ ‘posts_per_page’ => 2, ‘post_type’ => ‘thing’, ]; if ( ! empty( $pairedThing ) ) { $args[‘meta_key’] = ‘identifier’; $args[‘meta_value’] = $pairedThing; } 2.) Account for posts without the meta-key set: $pairedThing … Read more
Huge thanks to @kero !! I was finally able to create a solution by making the sql statement a variable first (as kero suggested) then using that variable on wpdb->query(); Here’s my updated and fully working codes now: $imdbid = $_GET[‘id’]; $string = file_get_contents(“http://www.omdbapi.com/?i=”.$imdbid.”&apikey=9a187152″); $json = json_decode($string, true); if( $json[‘Response’] === “True” ){ $dataID = … Read more
