WP_Query - search CPT and two custom fields
<?php | |
######################## | |
// Here you can search a post type or post and find posts | |
// with two different custom field data (keys). | |
// This is useful if you have setup two custom fields and storing | |
// data in the fields and need to find posts that match. | |
// In the case below I have two custom fields: content_client_id and content_status | |
// content_client_id = the id of a client | |
// content_status = the status of a post (EG: Awaiting Approval by Client) | |
// I want to find all posts that match a client id and Awaiting Approval by Client | |
// and then order the posts by another custom field called: content_scheduled_posting_date | |
######################## | |
$args = array( | |
'post_status' => 'publish', | |
'numberposts' => -1, | |
'post_type' => 'post', | |
'meta_query' => array( | |
array( | |
'key' => 'content_client_id', | |
'value' => $client_id, | |
'compare' => '=', | |

array( | |
'key' => 'content_status', | |
'value' => 'Awaiting Approval by Client', | |

'orderby' => 'content_scheduled_posting_date', | |

$results = new WP_Query( $args ); | |
//convert object to assocoiative array as I dont like working with WP Objects very much | |
