Hello there,
Thank you for contacting our support.
To create a WP_Query to filter your custom post type "auto" based on custom fields like "model" and "type," you can use the 'meta_query' parameter. Here's an example of how you can construct such a query:
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'auto', // Replace 'auto' with your custom post type name
'posts_per_page' => -1, // Use -1 to retrieve all matching posts, or specify a number
'meta_query' => array(
'relation' => 'AND', // You can use 'AND' or 'OR' as per your filtering requirements
array(
'key' => 'model', // Replace 'model' with your custom field key
'value' => 'desired_model_value', // Replace 'desired_model_value' with the value you want to filter by
'compare' => '=', // You can use different comparison operators like '=', '!=', '>', '<', 'LIKE', etc.
'type' => 'CHAR', // Adjust the data type if necessary
),
array(
'key' => 'type', // Replace 'type' with your custom field key
'value' => 'desired_type_value', // Replace 'desired_type_value' with the value you want to filter by
'compare' => '=', // You can use different comparison operators like '=', '!=', '>', '<', 'LIKE', etc.
'type' => 'CHAR', // Adjust the data type if necessary
),
),
);
$query = new WP_Query($args);
if ($query->have_posts()) {
while ($query->have_posts()) {
$query->the_post();
// Your loop code here
// You can access post data using functions like the_title(), the_content(), etc.
}
wp_reset_postdata(); // Restore the original post data
} else {
// No posts found
}
In the code above you have to:
- Replace 'auto' with your custom post type name.
- Replace 'model' and 'type' with the keys of your custom fields.
- Adjust the 'value' and 'compare' parameters as per your filtering criteria.
- You can use the 'type' parameter to specify the data type of your custom field if it's not a standard string.
This code will create a WP_Query that retrieves posts from the "auto" custom post type based on the specified custom field values. You can further customize this query to suit your specific needs.
