Problem:
How to have a default search filter value if none is selected by the user, e.g. on the initial page load?
Solution:
You can use the Views API filter wpv_filter_query to modify the underlying query so that if no filter value has been specified then the default is set. The code becomes slightly more complex if you need to allow for the possibility that there are other filters available in the same search that may or may not have been set aside from the filter to which you wish to apply a default.
Problem:
Set up a View that list date field birthday today - list all posts who has birthday today
Solution:
To display only posts to compare the custom date field which holds the birthdate and compare the birthdate with today's date, you need to add the following filter to your current theme's functions.php file.
add_filter( 'posts_where' , 'func_filter_birtdate_posts');
function func_filter_birtdate_posts( $where ) {
global $WP_Views;
global $wpdb;
if($WP_Views->current_view == 9999){
$where .= " And ".$wpdb->prefix."posts.ID IN (SELECT post_id FROM ".$wpdb->prefix."postmeta
WHERE (".$wpdb->prefix."postmeta.post_id = ".$wpdb->prefix."posts.ID)
AND ".$wpdb->prefix."postmeta.meta_key = 'wpcf-data-di-nascita'
AND month(FROM_UNIXTIME(".$wpdb->prefix."postmeta.meta_value)) = month(now())
AND day(FROM_UNIXTIME(".$wpdb->prefix."postmeta.meta_value)) = day(now())
)";
}
return $where;
}
Problem:
Filter Repeteable group fields using views - Filtering a Repeating Field Group by it's (own custom) fields, that will allow you to search within the Repeating Field Group entries
Solution:
There is a workaround to achieve this if you just wanted to search within the entries added using the Repeating Field Group. Where you can set your view to display Repeating Field Group and add the query filters using "Query Filter" section and then add the front-end filters to "Search and Pagination" section and add the RFG fields you want to display within your view's "Loop Output" section.
