Not 100% sure if this will work, but have you tried querying the meta key in a seperate array inside the $args? For instance… $args = array( ‘category’ => 2042, ‘posts_per_page’ => 3, ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value’, ‘meta_query’ => array ( array ( ‘key’ => ‘vacation_order’, ‘compare’ => ‘IN’ ) ) ); $new_query = new WP_Query( … Read more
Override main query for page template
You need to modify the tax_query block of code like below- $q->set( ‘tax_query’, array(array( ‘taxonomy’ => ‘product_cat’, ‘field’ => ‘term_id’, // Here it would be ‘term_id’ instead of only ‘ID’. ‘terms’ => $allowedCats, ‘operator’ => ‘IN’ // May be it would be ‘IN’ in stead of ‘NOT IN’.

I know this is an old question, but it is a bit confusing and hopefully will help someone. The reason that `$query->set doesn’t work is because the query has already been parsed and now we need to also update the tax_query object also.
