Can't get WP_Query to work properly

    What I want it to do:
    Retrieve all posts with a “osiris_slider-main” value.

    What its doing:
    I am receiving the first sticky post, which doesn’t even contain that value.

    index.php

    $slider = new WP_Query(
     array(
          'post_type' => 'any',
          'meta_query' => array(
               array(
                    'key' => 'osiris_slider-main',
                    'value' => '',
                    'compare' => 'NOT LIKE'
               )
          ),
          'orderby' => 'date'
     )
);
print_r($slider);

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • I’d try something like the following which should return all posts that have the ‘osiris_slider-main’ meta key.

    $slider = new WP_Query(
     array(
          'post_type' => 'any',
          'meta_key' => 'osiris_slider-main',
          'orderby' => 'date'
     )
);
print_r($slider);

    Thanks jkovis…

    That was my original code, but I’ve since figured out the issue;

    I just need to add “‘ignore_sticky_posts’ => 1” to the array… solved everything.

    Current code is:

    $slider = new WP_Query(
     array(
          'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1,
          'post_type' => 'any',
          'meta_key' => 'osiris_slider-main',
          'orderby' => 'date',
          'nopaging' => true,
          'posts_per_page' => 5
     )
);
