Current setup:
I have a custom post type messages
every message has a taxonomy attached cpt_series
the taxonomy series has custom fields of series_graphic, series_type, date_start, date_end
(graphic is an img, type is a dropdown, date’s are both d/m/y)
I’m attempting to build a query that will return the all of the terms of the taxonomy ‘series’ with the type ‘main’ and sort them by the date_start
this was my attempt – it doesn’t work
trying to learn more about WordPress query
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'messages',
'post_status' => 'publish',
//trying to query the taxonomy
'tax_query' => array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'cpt_series',
//trying to query the custom field
'meta_query' => array(
array(
'key' => 'series_type',
'value' => 'main',
'compare' => 'IN'
)
)
)
)
);
Haven’t started tryin to figure out the sort by date yet.
Any help in this would be great, thanks.
