Get posts with custom field & specific value - WordPress
The custom field is an amazing option in WordPress blog engine. We can make hundreds of useful applications & tricks with custom field to improve functionality of WordPress.
Today we are going to use this custom field in a creative way. We try to output a list of posts with a specific custom field and specific value through a simple hack.
I already say that this is too simple. We just want to add some new parameters with loop used to query posts.
<?php query_posts('meta_key=review_type&meta_value=movie'); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
To get posts with a specific custom field and specific value, we use the query_posts()
function with the meta_key
and meta_value
parameters. The meta_key
value is the name of the desired custom field, and meta_value
is the desired value.
