Hi,

I have yet another query, to which I need a real quick response.

I have implemented a “Near Me” sorting query in the custom post type archive page, with which I am not getting the custom post array(with their respective post ids) as sort results.

Now I cannot find a way to set that array of sort results as the main array of data for the repeater template (as repeater template works with posts coming from database directly).

Also let me tell you, I have other sorting types also active in that same repeater template page, which I don’t want affected by the “sorting with location near me”.

Can you assist ?

Awaiting your response…

Regards,
Vivek Shah

Ok, but can you show me with an example relative to my code I have posted, can you show me a demo for the same ?

Please check below, it is my custom repeater template that I have set in the site for Load More functionality.

I think you will get idea, what am I trying to do here.

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
global $wp_query,$shortcode_tags;
//$post = $wp_query->post;

if(!$_SESSION['location_near_sort_arr']):

$post = get_posts();
$post_id = $post->ID;
$postMeta = get_post_meta( $post_id );
$practSpecData = get_post_custom( $post_id );

array_walk($practSpecData, function(&$value, $key) {
	$value = array_shift( $value );
});

$practSpecData = array_filter($practSpecData, function(&$value, $key) {
if (startsWith($key, '_')) unset($key, $value); else return $key;
}, ARRAY_FILTER_USE_BOTH);

$practSpecData = array_filter($practSpecData, function(&$value, $key) {
if (startsWith($key, 'eg_')) unset($key, $value); else return $key;
}, ARRAY_FILTER_USE_BOTH);

$practAddLocs = unserialize($practSpecData['additional_locations']);
$practAddLocsCnt = count($practAddLocs);

I am trying to do customized sorting for “near me” locations, and as those type of sorting cannot be done by database, I am taking the help of array sorting, but when I do that I am getting same slot of records over and over again when I click on “More” button.

Can you help out, it’s really urgent….

Hi, dcooney, are you online ?

I have another query regarding this same topic, can I ask and expect earliest reply from you ?

Ok thanks, how can I pass custom (non-preset) arguments and access those arguments inside shortcode expansion ?
