when you use ‘meta_key’ => ‘Start_Hour Start_Minute’ then the query looks for posts with a custom field named Start_Hour Start_Minute together so that is why its not working for you. But there is a way to order by multiple custom fields using posts_orderby filter hook, so first create a function that will add your orderby … Read more
Have you looked at WP_Object_Cache? If you suspect there is unwanted caching happening in the code that generates the admin panel then you might be able to use functions from the WP_Object_Cache to clear it. WP_Object_Cache is WordPress’ class for caching data which may be computationally expensive to regenerate, such as the result of complex … Read more
the_post places the next post object from $query->posts in the global $post and calls setup_postdata, which assumes $post is a post object, as it tries to access member vars of that object, which is where the errors come from. In this case $posts is just an array of IDs instead of post objects. If you … Read more
Getting meta data from a WP_Post object is already possible. Just write: echo $post->your_meta_key; This will call get_post_meta( $this->ID, $your_meta_key, true ) behind the scenes. See the documentation and the source code for WP_Post. This works also with instances of WP_User, but not with WP_Comment as far as I know. Don’t forget to escape the … Read more
Martin’s fix works, but a better solution is to use the pre_get_posts function. Example: function custom_type_archive_display($query) { if (is_post_type_archive(‘custom_type’)) { $query->set(‘posts_per_page’,1); return; } } add_action(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘custom_type_archive_display’);
It’s a quite simple revision to your current code. You can add multiple “orderby” values separated by a space. ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num title’, This should keep the priority of sorting by your meta value, with a secondary sort of title.
A common pitfall is the fact that: category_name takes the category SLUG NOT the name as attribute This is often mistaken.
global $wp_query; $original_query = $wp_query; $wp_query = null; $wp_query = new WP_Query( $args ); if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); the_title(); the_excerpt(); endwhile; else: echo ‘no posts found’; endif; $wp_query = null; $wp_query = $original_query; wp_reset_postdata(); http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_reset_postdata
Run one wp_query for post_per_page = 2 and get the IDs of these 2 posts in an array to be excluded in the next 3 posts needed <?php // The Query $next_args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘<your_post_type>’, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘posts_per_page’=>2, ‘order’=>’DESC’, ‘orderby’=>’ID’, ); $the_query = new WP_Query( $args ); // The Loop if ( … Read more
You have to use post__in (double underscore) argument, instead of post_in: echo print_r($rel); // Array ( [0] => 63 [1] => 87 ) $args = array( ‘post_type’ => array( ‘post’ ), ‘orderby’ => ‘ASC’, ‘post__in’ => $rel ); $loop = new WP_Query( $args ); If you are unsure why an argument is not working, copy … Read more
