I would like to sort results by relevance. I have custom code that is used to display relevance as a percentage, and I would like to use that relevance value to sort the results in a View.

Hello,

There isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset Views/Blocks plugin, Toolset Views plugin is using WP_Query to query posts, see WP document:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#order-orderby-parameters

There isn't such an option to sort the result by relevance,

You might consider custom codes, for example, use filter hook "wpv_filter_query_post_process" to resort View's result with custom codes, see our document:
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views-filters/#wpv_filter_query_post_process
When displaying a View listing posts, this filter is applied after the WP_Query has been run.

hey Luo,
thanks but I don't have enough php skills to deal with that.
If it's a simple code - I'd appreciate your (or Waqar's) help
if it's too much, i'll give it up
Ido
