  • Hi.

    I had a similar problem where I had a custom post type for FAQ’s and I wanted to put the top five questions at the top then followed by the rest.
    I was tearing my hair out before I saw John’s answer above. At least in my case I had to update all the posts after I had created the custom field I wanted to sort against.

    It could be even more elaborate I guess but this does the trick for me.

    $args = array(
	'post_type' => 'faq',
	'posts_per_page' => -1,
	'meta_key' => 'top_five',
	'orderby' => 'meta_value',
);

  • Hi!

    I opened a support ticket and just received an answer. James’ reply was:

    Can you please deactivate and re-activate your ACF PRO license (from the custom fields -> updates page) and try the plugin update again?
    You can also try the ‘Dashboard -> Updates’ page and click the ‘Check again’ button to clear plugin update cached data.

    The first solution did the trick for me.

    Hope it works for you 🙂

  • UPDATE:

    I updated WP to the latest version (4.8.1) but the problem with ACF remains.

  • I got it working now, seems like I called for the wrong ID. That was awkward 😛 Thanks anyway!

  • I store it on a page. I called for the field in the header.php but the meta-tag showed up empty. I called the field like so: <?php the_field('field', 300); ?> where 300 is the ID of the page where the value is stored.

  • Yes this makes total sense. As I said, I only wrote here as a last resort.

    Thank you for your answer.

  • Hi.

    I had a similar problem recently and I found this bit of code that did the trick for me. Here’s a link to the article.

    // Make the search to index custom
/**
 * Extend WordPress search to include custom fields
 * http://adambalee.com
 *
 * Join posts and postmeta tables
 * http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/posts_join
 */
function cf_search_join( $join ) {
    global $wpdb;
    if ( is_search() ) {    
        $join .=' LEFT JOIN '.$wpdb->postmeta. ' ON '. $wpdb->posts . '.ID = ' . $wpdb->postmeta . '.post_id ';
    }
    return $join;
}
add_filter('posts_join', 'cf_search_join' );

/**
 * Modify the search query with posts_where
 * http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/posts_where
 */
function cf_search_where( $where ) {
    global $pagenow, $wpdb;
    if ( is_search() ) {
        $where = preg_replace(
            "/\(\s*".$wpdb->posts.".post_title\s+LIKE\s*(\'[^\']+\')\s*\)/",
            "(".$wpdb->posts.".post_title LIKE $1) OR (".$wpdb->postmeta.".meta_value LIKE $1)", $where );
    }
    return $where;
}
add_filter( 'posts_where', 'cf_search_where' );

/**
 * Prevent duplicates
 * http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/posts_distinct
 */
function cf_search_distinct( $where ) {
    global $wpdb;
    if ( is_search() ) {
        return "DISTINCT";
    }
    return $where;
}
add_filter( 'posts_distinct', 'cf_search_distinct' );

  • Thanks! Of course that’s the case! 🙂

  • It looks like this:

    <div>
    <?php if( have_rows('post_content') ): ?>
        <?php while ( have_rows('post_content') ) : the_row();
            if( get_row_layout() == 'layout_text' ): ?>
            <?php the_sub_field('text'); ?>
        <?php endif; endwhile; ?>
    <?php endif; ?>
</div>

<div>
    <?php if( have_rows('post_content') ): ?>
        <?php while ( have_rows('post_content') ) : the_row();
            if( get_row_layout() == 'layout_image' ): ?>
            <?php the_sub_field('image'); ?>
        <?php endif; endwhile; ?>
    <?php endif; ?>
</div>

<div>
    <?php if( have_rows('post_content') ): ?>
        <?php while ( have_rows('post_content') ) : the_row();
            if( get_row_layout() == 'layout_video' ): ?>
            <div class="videowrapper">
                <?php the_sub_field('video'); ?>
            </div>
        <?php endif; endwhile; ?>
    <?php endif; ?>
</div>

    Maybe I should somehow make it in to one loop, but I can’t figure it out.

    Thanks

  • Thanks! I think I’ll do that then 🙂

  • Alright, that’s too bad. It would be way more user friendly if those fields could be disabled.

    I might have to build my own.

    Thanks

  • Yes, at a second look i saw that I had indeed the headline and the text content in separate layouts. Thanks!

  • Thanks for your answer.
    That gave me the same output unfortunately. The thing is, the frontend looks good and as it should, it’s just a shame it should mess up the DOM.

  • Hello.
    You could define your marker as “nothing” in your add_marker-function. That would be something like this:

    function add_marker( $marker, map ) {
	// var
	var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng( $marker.attr('data-lat'), $marker.attr('data-lng') );
	// create marker
	var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
		position	: latlng,
		map			: map,
		icon		: ''
});

    I’m not quite sure if this is the absolutely best way to do it, but it gets the job done.

  • That did it! Thanks a lot
