I have this query:
<?php
$query= "SELECT wposts.* FROM $wpdb->posts wposts, $wpdb->postmeta wpostmeta WHERE wposts.ID = wpostmeta.post_id AND wpostmeta.meta_key = 'votes' AND wposts.post_status = 'publish' AND wposts.post_type = 'post' ORDER BY CAST(wpostmeta.meta_value AS SIGNED) DESC LIMIT 10";
$posts = $wpdb->get_results($query, OBJECT);
if ($posts ) : foreach ($posts as $post):
setup_postdata($post);
?>
// Post here
<?php endforeach; endif; ?>
<div class="pagination">
<?php wp_pagenavi(); ?>
</div>
I'm using this because Wordpress can't properly order meta_values that uses numbers, anyway...everything works fine except I have no clue on how to paginate this using wp_pagenavi.
Any idea?
Although I wouldn't recommend it, you could try changing the properties of the global $wp_query
object.
global $wp_query; // shouldn't be required
$query = "SELECT wposts.* FROM $wpdb->posts wposts, $wpdb->postmeta wpostmeta
WHERE wposts.ID = wpostmeta.post_id AND wpostmeta.meta_key = 'votes'
AND wposts.post_status = 'publish' AND wposts.post_type = 'post' ORDER BY
CAST(wpostmeta.meta_value AS SIGNED) DESC LIMIT 10";
$posts = $wpdb->get_results($query, OBJECT);
$wp_query->posts = $posts;
$wp_query->is_paged = true;
$wp_query->current_post = -1;
// etc etc
You can look up the definition of the WP_Query class or do a var_dump() or print_r() on the $wp_query object after calling query_posts.
Good luck!
Thank @jaziel matoso,
Below code works:
global $wp_query;
$query = "SELECT wposts.* FROM $wpdb->posts wposts, $wpdb->postmeta wpostmeta
WHERE wposts.ID = wpostmeta.post_id AND wpostmeta.meta_key = 'votes'
AND wposts.post_status = 'publish' AND wposts.post_type = 'post' ORDER BY
CAST(wpostmeta.meta_value AS SIGNED) DESC";
$total_record = count($wpdb->get_results($query, ARRAY_A));
$paged = get_query_var('paged') ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$post_per_page = get_option('posts_per_page');
$offset = ($paged - 1)*$post_per_page;
$max_num_pages = ceil($total_record/ $post_per_page);
$wp_query->found_posts = $total_record;
// number of pages
$wp_query->max_num_pages = $max_num_pages;
$limit_query = " LIMIT ".$post_per_page." OFFSET ".$offset;
$result = $wpdb->get_results($query.$limit_query,OBJECT);// return OBJECT
if($result):
foreach ($result as $post):
setup_postdata($post);
?>
<h3><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>
<p><?php the_content(); ?></p>
<?php
endforeach;
?>
<div class="navigation"><?php wp_pagenavi(); ?></div>
<?php
endif;
Done!
global $wp_query;
// per page
$ppp = $limit;
// full found posts , query without limit
$wp_query->found_posts = count($total);
// number of pages
$wp_query->max_num_pages = ceil($wp_query->found_posts / $ppp);
It Works!
<?php
global $wpdb, $wp_query, $paged;
$author = isset($_GET['author_name']) ? get_userdatabylogin($author_name) : get_userdata(intval($author));
$post_per_page = intval(get_query_var('posts_per_page'));
query_posts($query_string . '&posts_per_page=' . $post_per_page);
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$offset = ($paged - 1) * $post_per_page;
$query = "SELECT `wp_postmeta`.*, `wp_posts`.* ";
$query .= "FROM `wp_postmeta` ";
$query .= "LEFT JOIN `wp_posts` ON wp_posts.id = wp_postmeta.post_id ";
$query .= "WHERE `meta_key` = 'autor' AND `post_status` = 'publish' AND `meta_value` = '%s' ";
$postsQuery = $query . "LIMIT $offset, " . $post_per_page;
$numRowsQuery = $wpdb->prepare( $query, $author->id );
$allPosts = $wpdb->get_results($numRowsQuery);
$wp_query->found_posts = $wpdb->num_rows;
$wp_query->max_num_pages = ceil($wp_query->found_posts / $post_per_page);
$dataQuery = $wpdb->prepare( $postsQuery, $author->id );
$posts = $wpdb->get_results($dataQuery);
?>
<?php if ($posts) : ?>
<?php foreach ($posts as $post): ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php echo get_the_title(); ?></a>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php wp_pagenavi(); ?>
