AFAIK $query->get for main query works only with public query vars, i.e. vars that can be triggered via url, but nothing prevents to directly access directly to tax_query property of query, but notice that it is an object, instance of WP_Tax_Query and the current queried taxonomy arguments are in the queries property of that object. … Read more
I figured out a solution to my question. First of all, in my original query, I should have specified OR instead of AND for searching between group names and group descriptions. (It was skewing the results.) And I needed to double escape my ‘%’s in the LIKE statements. Here is the updated query which works … Read more

wp_postmeta has inefficient indexes. The published table (see Wikipedia) is CREATE TABLE wp_postmeta ( meta_id bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, post_id bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, meta_key varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL, meta_value longtext, PRIMARY KEY (meta_id), KEY post_id (post_id), KEY meta_key (meta_key) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8; The problems: The AUTO_INCREMENT provides no benefit; in fact … Read more
Those are placeholders for % signs. If you’re sending % in the value to be compared against yourself, you’ll notice it transforming ‘%test%’ into wp_posts.post_title LIKE ‘{30d0e4b86a2a793010a75740f60810aff6b57f6d18edc10be7ca6dc158e40c06}\{30d0e4b86a2a793010a75740f60810aff6b57f6d18edc10be7ca6dc158e40c06}11{30d0e4b86a2a793010a75740f60810aff6b57f6d18edc10be7ca6dc158e40c06}\{30d0e4b86a2a793010a75740f60810aff6b57f6d18edc10be7ca6dc158e40c06}’ when you look at $query->request. The Query at the database side will have %. I haven’t looked into why exactly and where it is done, but I’ve noticed … Read more
I figured out what I was doing wrong. A simple beginners mistake. Array_reverse was working properly, but I wasn’t then reassigning the reversed array back to the $home_shows WP_Query, hence not seeing any change. Here is the answer, and my revised code. <?php $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘show’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 5, ‘order’ => ‘DESC’, … Read more
So I believe the question is how to get the terms back in the order of the Ids you’ve provided – which might not be sorted ascending or descending, but a random order instead. Surprisingly, I think there’s a shortcut for that in WP – who knew? This, I believe, is what you want to … Read more
Few months ago, I updated the Codex for get_users() and WP_User_Query, regarding the date_query support on the user’s registration date, in WordPress 4.1+. Then I also added a simple example on how to find users that registered during the last 12 hours. But the current question is how to find users that registered today. We … Read more
