    Hello,

    Trying to order the query by filtering wpc_query. Where am i wrong ?

    function my_wpc_query( $query_args ) {

	   if( $query_args['post_type'] === 'evenement' ) {

		unset($query_args['orderby']);
		set_query_var($query_args['orderby'], 'meta_value_num');
		set_query_var($query_args['meta_key'], 'date_evt2');	 

		}

	return $query_args;
}
add_filter('wpc_query', 'my_wpc_query', 1, 1);

    Ok did it this way and it works.

    function afri_wpc_query( $query_args ) {

	   if( $query_args['post_type'][0] == 'evenement' ) {

		unset($query_args['orderby']);
		$query_args['orderby'] = 'meta_value_num';
		$query_args['meta_key'] = 'date_evt2';	 

		}

		if( $query_args['post_type'][0] == 'revue' && $query_args['post_type'][1] == 'ouvrage') {

		unset($query_args['orderby']);
		$query_args['orderby'] = 'meta_value_num';
		$query_args['meta_key'] = 'date_publication';	 

		}

		var_dump($query_args);	

	return $query_args;

}
add_filter('wpc_query', 'afri_wpc_query', 1, 1);

    I think, this way might be better:

    function afri_wpc_query( $query_args ) {

    $post_types = $query_args['post_type'];

    if ( ! empty( $post_types ) ) {
        foreach ( $post_types as $type ) {
            switch( $type ) {
                case 'evenement':
                    $query_args['orderby'] = 'meta_value_num';
                    $query_args['meta_key'] = 'date_evt2';
                break;
                case 'revue':
                case 'ouvrage':
                    $query_args['orderby'] = 'meta_value_num';
                    $query_args['meta_key'] = 'date_publication';
                break;
            }
        }
    }

    return $query_args;
}
add_filter('wpc_query', 'afri_wpc_query', 1, 1);

    Thanks for the answer. Yes nicer code.
    And no need to unset. Ok.
