FacetWP: Sort by different criteria

  • Dear all,
    I’m trying to add a sort option in my FacetWP that sorts results first by date (oldest post first) and then by a custom field I created called “Points”, that is always a number. I’m able to do it either/or, but I’m struggling to make both work simultaneosly. This is my code: 

    add_filter( 'facetwp_sort_options', function( $options, $params ) {
    $options['points_desc'] = array(
        'label' => 'Points (Highest)',
        'query_args' => array(
            'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
            'meta_key' => 'points',
            'order' => 'DESC',
        )
    );
    return $options;
}, 10, 2 );

    I’m trying to replicate this here: GitHub, but I’m not being able to adapt it to my needs. Any help? Thanks in advance!

    The two meta-fields of Helpful are: helpful-pro and helpful-contra

    How you can now use FaceWP to control multiple filters at the same time, I don’t know. You’ll have to ask the FaceWP support.

    However, Helpful only updates the content in the meta fields if you access the posts in the wp-admin or in the post overview directly in the wp-admin.

    Otherwise, you must update the meta fields so that the current values are always used.

    You can see how Helpful updates the meta fields here:

    // Pro

    $pro = Helpful_Helper_Stats::getPro( $post_id );
$pro = intval( $pro );
update_post_meta( $post_id, 'helpful-pro', $pro );

    // Contra

    $contra = Helpful_Helper_Stats::getContra( $post_id );
$contra = intval( $contra );
update_post_meta( $post_id, 'helpful-contra', $contra );
