How to sort multiple wordpress custom field values?

Question

Display posts with \'Product\' type ordered by \'Price\' custom field:

$query = new WP_Query( 
                      array ( \'post_type\' => \'product\', 
          


        

Answer 1

Here's an example of using more than one meta_key and orderby that I believe should work:

$params = array(
'post_type' => 'product',
'meta_query' => array(
    array(
            'key' => 'price',
            'value' => '',
            'compare' => 'LIKE'
    ),
    array(
            'key' => 'size',
            'value' => '',
            'compare' => 'LIKE'
    )
),
'orderby' => 'price size',
'order' => 'ASC'
);
$query = new WP_Query;
$resulting_obj = $query->query($params);

You'll need to play with the meta_query items a bit more, especially the 'value' parameter. Please have a good look at http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query in the 'Custom Field Parameters' section.
