[Resolved] Custom field “in” filter with shortcode attribute parameter not working

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

Customer mentioned that the "IN" comparison is not working for their view custom filter

Solution:

This setting is actually working. The problem was that the user was filtering for a field on a post type that doesn't have that custom field.

I am trying to display case studies from the custom field(case study id) with allow multiple values added on home page.
I have created view to display case studies for the added 2 ids on home page

Link to a page where the issue can be seen:hidden link

I expected to see: 2 case studies

Instead, I got: no results found

Please check attached screen shots for the same.

Hi Vimal,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

I think there might be a plugin conflict here that is blocking the view query.

I checked the debug data for view and noticed that IN is not being added to the sql query for the view.

Could you temporarily disable all the non-toolset plugins and try again? However I suspect that this plugin might be the cause Intuitive Custom Post Order

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Vimal,

It seems the actual issue is that the issue is that you were filtering for the custom field case-id instead of the post id for the cases.

I changed the filter to the post id so it should start working now.

Thanks,
Shane
