Take a look at meta.php:777: … CAST($alias.meta_value AS {$meta_type}) {$meta_compare} {$meta_compare_string})… So if you want to use DATE comparisons, you should use MySQL compatible date formats (YYYY-MM-DD). Change this part of your code: array( ‘key’ => ‘date’, ‘value’ => date(“Y/m/d”), ‘compare’ => ‘>=’, ‘type’ => ‘DATE’ ), to: array( ‘key’ => ‘date’, ‘value’ => date(“Y-m-d”), … Read more
Your older code seems to work just fine, if there were issues with it – something else caused them. Your updated version seems to take a step back since your loop is written like main loop and is not using $queryObject that you set up.
So after some more digging was able to figure it out. Using the Advanced Custom Fields plugin, I created a text field that appears on attachments with specific tag applied to them. Now you can assign a value and I updated my WP_Query to reflect: <?php $args = new WP_Query(array( ‘post_type’ => ‘attachment’, ‘posts_per_page’ => … Read more
Is this what you are looking for? $query = new wp_query($arr); $arr = array( ‘author__in’=> array(2,4,6), //Authors’s id’s you like to include ‘posts_per_page’ => ’12’, ‘paged’ => $paged, ‘tax_query’ => array( array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘category’, ‘field’ => ‘id’, ‘terms’ => array ( $cat_ids ), ) ) );
Add this to a plugin or your active themes functions.php function my_custom_display_topic_index_query () { $args[‘orderby’] = ‘date’; $args[‘order’] = ‘DESC’; return $args; } add_filter(‘bbp_before_has_topics_parse_args’, ‘my_custom_display_topic_index_query’ );
From a naming standpoint it seems that the term “filter” would be more appropriate since you are filtering by criteria first and then a sort (directional) is applied when you order. But that’s more a naming convention standpoint… From a code structure if you are using the check_for_popular() method in several places then it makes … Read more
Short answer: You can’t. Not like that, anyway. You could, however, grab all of the results from your query, regardless of the presence of that custom field, and completely unsorted, and then sort them using the PHP function uksort http://us1.php.net/manual/en/function.uksort.php Something like: $args = array( ‘cat’ => 5, ‘numberposts’ => 8 ); $posts = get_posts($args); … Read more
You are stepping on a query mine. It is easy to assume that: You can change query. Parameters are well defined. So by changing of parameters you can achieve desired results. In reality there are plenty of query parameters, touching which leads into horrible dead ends. WordPress is engineered to query and show posts which … Read more
$args = array( ‘cat’=>7, ‘offset’=>4,’paged’ => $paged); in this array use posts_per_page insted of offset $args = array( ‘cat’ => 7, ‘posts_per_page’ => 4,’paged’ => $paged);
Milo’s comment about pre_get_posts helped solve this issue for me. In my case the parent theme used the pre_get_posts action to explicitly set the post_type for all author pages. It wasn’t in the functions.php, but I was able to find it by searching the theme for instances of pre_get_posts. (I used grep -R “pre_get_posts” . … Read more
