Trying to sort Category taxonomy with a PODS custom field
-
Hi,
I created a pod named “exhibition” and I used category taxonomy from WP.
In my pod I have “exhibition_end_date” field and I want to use that field as my orderby criterion. When I used the code snippet from https://docs.pods.io/code-snippets/ordering-cpt-archive-by-custom-fields/ it didn’t work.The order is still made by WP’s post creation date.
Any suggestions?

the full code is:
<?php
function slug_order_archive_by_field( $query ) {if ( $query->is_main_query() &&
is_post_type_archive( ‘exhibition’ ) ) {
$query->set( ‘meta_key’, ‘exhibition_end_date’ );
$query->set( ‘order’, ‘ASC’ );
$query->set( ‘orderby’, ‘meta_value_date’ );
}
}
add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘slug_order_archive_by_field’ );
?>In the query monitor for pre_get_posts hook there is this message:
slug_order_archive_by_field()
wp-content/plugins/insert-php/includes/class.execute.snippet.php(634) : eval()’d code:1Hi @doktorramiz
That looks fine, assuming your if statement is working correctly ??
Do you also see the main query in Query Monitor? It should include your changes.Cheers, Jory
