[wp-forums] sorting posts per title using 'pre_get_posts'

[Chris Olbekson]

I'm on mobile and can't reply to thread. 


To solve he would need to use the posts_orderby filter. The problem is posts _orderby doesn't know anything about $wp_query. The solution is to add the filter from within the wrapper function from pre_get_posts. 


function wpsf_orderby( $query ) {
    // do conditional checks here and return on false. 


   remove _action( 'pre_get_posts', __FUNCTION__ );
    add_filter( 'posts_orderby', function() {
return 'ORDER BY post_title ASC';
    }
}


add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'wpsf_orderby' );
