Custom order (distance)

Anonymous

#38355

The setup is that I have custom Taxonomy that has a location field added with ACF.
Also the posts in the custom post type have this location field added with ACF

ACF stores the long- and latitude in an array.

I want that the user makes a selection of the taxonomy and that de results are ordered by distance,
has this been done before?

How can the search query be modified to order the results like this?

Hey Richard

I’ve not implemented anything like that yet, but its on my to do list.

Really not sure how you would implement it into S&F, but I can say you can modify S&F queries using this filter:

https://www.designsandcode.com/documentation/search-filter-pro/action-filter-reference/#Edit_Query_Arguments

This give you access to the arguments that are passed to the WP_Query that is used by S&F

Thanks
