Hi @jloupf

I think I found the issue. It seems ‘post_where’ filter won’t work with get_posts() function. To fix it, you need to set suppress_filters option to false. Please take a look at the note on this page: https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/posts_where.

So, your code should be something like this:

$formations = get_posts(array(
    'suppress_filters' => FALSE,
    'post_type' => 'formation',
    'meta_query' => array(
        array(
            'key' => 'chapitres_%_lecon', // name of custom field
            'value' => '"' . get_the_ID() . '"', // matches exaclty "123", not just 123. This prevents a match for "1234"
            'compare' => 'LIKE'
        )
    )
));

if( $formations ): ?>
. . .

I hope this helps 🙂
