FacetWP Sort By?

Hi @bekee,

I’ve added extra helpers so that you can output the values with the help of post_id.

Here is the link to Github, with the corresponding functions: https://github.com/pixelbart/helpful/blob/master/core/values.php

// get pro for single post
helpful_get_pro( $post_id = null );

// get contra for single post
helpful_get_contra( $post_id = null );

Helpful also stores something in the meta fields, but not everything. Helpful’s meta fields are updated every time the overview pages are called in wp-admin.

// get pro for single post
get_post_meta( $post_id, 'helpful-pro', true);

// get contra for single post
get_post_meta( $post_id, 'helpful-contra', true);

Hopefully that could help you a little.

$args = [

	'meta_query'     => [],
	'fields'         => 'ids',
	'meta_key'       => 'helpful-pro',
	'orderby'        => 'meta_value_num',
	'order'          => 'DESC',

$query = new WP_Query( $args );

if ( $query->found_posts ) {

	printf( '<strong>%s</strong><br>', esc_html__( 'Pro:' ) );

	foreach ( $query->posts as $post_id ) :
		printf( '%s: %d<br>', get_the_title( $post_id ), (int) get_post_meta( $post_id, 'helpful-pro', true ) );
	endforeach;

I’ve already tested the code on myself. All you have to do is insert the post_type as argument and change the order accordingly (ASC/DESC).
