How to order WP_Query by parent for hierarchical Custom Post Type?
How can I get all items under specific parent and order them by menu order in hierarchical Custom Post Type? Lets say I have this posts structure:
- Fruits
- Apples
- Bananas
- Plum
- Cherry
- Vegetables
- Potatoes
- Beans
- Beet
- Nuts
- Walnut
- Chia seeds
This doesn't work:
$args = array(
'post_type' = 'vile',
'posts_per_page' = -1,
'post_parent__in' = array(543), // Only children of Fruits or Vegetables or Nuts
'order' = 'ASC',
'orderby' = 'menu_order'
);
$query = new WP_Query($args);
Registering CPT
add_action( 'init', 'register_vile', 0 );
function register_vile() {
$labels = array(
'name' = _x( 'Vile', 'Vile', 'mytextdomain' ),
);
$args = array(
'label' = __( 'Vile', 'mytextdomain' ),
'labels' = $labels,
'supports' = array( 'title', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'page-attributes' ),
'taxonomies' = array( 'post_tag' ),
'hierarchical' = true,
'public' = true,
'show_ui' = true,
'show_in_menu' = true,
'menu_position' = 5,
'show_in_admin_bar' = true,
'show_in_nav_menus' = true,
'can_export' = true,
'has_archive' = true,
'exclude_from_search' = true,
'publicly_queryable' = true,
'capability_type' = 'page',
'rewrite' = array(
'slug' = 'vile',
),
);
register_post_type( 'vile', $args );
}
