Sorting miniposts by date

Didn’t test this but:

<?php
$args=array(
  'meta_key' => '_mini_post',
  'order' => 'ASC',
  'post_type' => 'post',
  'post_status' => 'publish',
  'posts_per_page' => -1,
  'caller_get_posts'=> 1
);
$my_query = null;
$my_query = new WP_Query($args);
if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
  echo 'List of mini posts';
  while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
    <p><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></p>
    <?php
  endwhile;
}
wp_reset_query();  // Restore global post data stomped by the_post().
?>

Hi – thank you so much for that. I’m afraid my php is a bit limited. I tried adding it but created a fatal error. Is there a particular place in the code it needs to go in? I couldn’t see anything about a sort order but I may well have missed it.

The ‘order’ clause does the sorting.

Consider downloading and installing Otto’s PHP Code Widget, then put that code in one of those widgets.
