Correct me if im wrong but is this right when searching for poet meta key a value in Wordpress ?

$args = array(
  'post_type' => 'clientorders',
  'meta_query' => array(
    array(
      'key' => 'installDDate',
      'value' => $date1,
      'compare' => '=',
    ),
  ),
);

Your syntax is correct, if the query isn't coming up with anything it'd be worth checking for typos. Is that double D in installDDate deliberate?

The reason it uses nested arrays is to allow for more than one meta key/value pair in the query, which can be combined with different relations. Each pair would have its own array at the innermost level.

  • Hi Chris - Yeah the installDDate is current and is within the post type clientorders. ive even tried `$date44 = '09-06-2024'; $args = array( 'post_type' => 'clientorders', 'meta_query' => array( array( 'key' => 'clientOrderDate', 'value' => $date44, 'compare' => '=', ), ), ); $results = get_posts($args); // Corrected constructor call if ($results->have_posts()) { echo "<p>Matching order date: $date44</p>"; // Display searched date echo "<ul>"; while ($results->have_posts()) { $results->the_post();'
