Hi @jluc73,

Thanks for the post.

The first step would involve the creation of a custom filter to replace the standard ‘=’ with ‘LIKE’ in the SQL query, this is to allow for a WILDCARD in the meta_key search.

The query will look like so:

// filter
function my_posts_where( $where ) {
	
	$where = str_replace("meta_key = 'dates_%", "meta_key LIKE 'dates_%", $where);

	return $where;
}

add_filter('posts_where', 'my_posts_where');

You can then order your posts like so:

$args = array(
	'numberposts'	=> -1,
	'post_type'	=> 'post type',
        'orderby'      => 'meta_value'
	'meta_key'	=> 'telechargement_%_date,
        'order'         => 'ASC'
        
		
);
