Hi,
I need to order my results in a view using 2 different custom fields, anyway in the secondary ordering field I can only choose date, title, ID, author etc.
My first custom field is called "hierachy" and it's a numeric one, the second field is "last-name" and it's alphabetical. I need to use them to order only the post type "doctors", not other post types.

How can I do this?

Thanks,
Nicola

Hi Nicola,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately it is not possible to sort by 2 custom fields at the same time, however a feature request for this has already been logged so we can expect this in a future update if approved.

Thanks,
Shane
