I was searching for this but didn't find the solution. I am getting posts orderby title but some posts need to come first so I added a custom field which meta_key
is display_postion
and the values for this fields are numbers i.e. 1,2,3. So how do I achieve this, below is my current code.
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'products',
'order' => 'ASC',
'orderby'=> 'title',
'post_status' => 'publish',
'posts_per_page' => -1,
'paged' => $paged
;
$wp_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post();
Adding meta_value_num
to an orderby
array and referencing 'display_position'
in the meta_key
field should do the trick:
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'products',
'order' => 'ASC',
'orderby' => array(
'meta_value_num' => 'ASC',
'title' => 'ASC'
),
'post_status' => 'publish',
'posts_per_page' => - 1,
'paged' => $paged,
'meta_key' => 'display_position'
);
$wp_query = new WP_Query($args);
if ($wp_query->have_posts()):
while ($wp_query->have_posts()):
$wp_query->the_post();
See documentation for Order and Orderby parameters for WP_Query.
