This part: ‘base’ => str_replace( 999999999, ‘%#%’, esc_url( get_pagenum_link( 999999999 ) ) ), is generating a page part like this one: ‘base’ => http://example.tld/page/%#%/ If we peek into paginate_links() we see the default: ‘base’ => $pagenum_link, // http://example.com/all_posts.php%_% : // %_% is replaced by format (below) ‘format’ => $format, // ?page=%#% : %#% is replaced … Read more
If the query is only for a small number of posts, then as linked to by Alex you can sort in php. However, this does not scale well. As suggested by Kovshenin – a better alternative is to use posts_orderby filter: $post_ids = array(83,24,106,2283,14); $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, ‘post__in’ => $post_ids, ‘numberposts’ => … Read more
Instead of trying to display all the matching events on your by-date page, you could try to display through ?post_type=event like this: function rewrite_rule_by_date() { add_rewrite_rule(‘by\-date/([0-9]{4}\-[0-9]{2}\-[0-9]{2})$’, ‘index.php?post_type=event&event_date=$matches[1]’, ‘top’); } add_action( ‘init’, ‘rewrite_rule_by_date’ ); function query_var_by_date() { add_rewrite_tag( ‘%event_date%’, ‘([0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2})’); } add_action( ‘init’, ‘query_var_by_date’ ); function custom_event_query( $query ) { if ( get_query_var( ‘event_date’ ) && … Read more
A rought method would be to set value of balance to ‘mt1.meta_value’ and then use a ‘posts_request’ filter to remove the escaping quotes: $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘post’, // maybe not ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ‘balance’, ‘compare’ => ‘>=’, ‘value’ => ‘mt1.meta_value’, // this will be treated as a string ‘type’ => … Read more
OK – I got it, the old posts already on the database do NOT have an english translation and that’s the problem with my loop. When I add a new post, I have the option to provide a translation which then appears in the english page. looking through the docs I found that I can … 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
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.
