Pass all custom fields through the same filter on post load?
Internally post meta are handled via object cache that is hardly filterable. The only chance to filter post metadata is to use the ‘get_post_metadata’, but that filter is triggered when meta data are not available, so there is nothing to filter, it was intended to short-circuit the result more than to filter them. So the … Read more
Can I count the number of users matching a value in a multiple value key?
If you are working with serialized data as your meta_value, that sucks, as Pieter suggested, it’s best not to. However if there is no way around the serialization problem then I wonder if a meta_query using a compare value of LIKE might help… Example: //psuedo serialized data… (e.g. value of meta_key = fruits_user_like) //a:4:{i:0;s:5:”apple”;i:1;s:6:”orange”;i:2;s:6:”banana”;i:3;s:31:”serialized_data_sucks_sometimes”;} $users … Read more
explode array within shortcode
Kind of confusing question, but I think you want: [mp3-jplayer tracks=”‘.implode(‘, ‘, get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘mp3’, false)).'”] Assuming you get a array of meta key values this will join the into a comma-separated string
Add custom objects/entities to WordPress

We will also run a small, but very lean secondary query where we will get all posts which have a comment_status of closed which have a … Read more
Problem with serialized arrays in custom meta
See my comment on your question above. I just realized that if you’re ending up with those special characters in the database, most likely you’re not sanitizing the data before saving it into the database. Try running htmlentities() over all the values that you’re saving into that serialized array, and see if you end up … Read more

Custom search: by post data and post metadata?
The built-in WP search looks only a Posts’/Pages’ Title and Content, not thru other elements like Custom Fields and the content of Shortcodes. There’s a number of plugs that will search Custom Fields: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-custom-fields-search/ http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search-everything/ http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/relevanssi/ There also a filter apply_filters_ref_array() that “allows plugins to contextually add/remove/modify the search section of the database query.” FYI, … Read more
