Hello,
I would like the results of my search to be sorted in ascending order using an ACF field of type number. There are negative numbers for example “-200” and also positive numbers.
I set “default order” on this field but it doesn’t work …
Can you help me
Thank you

Ah, OK, can you set the Date field as a Post Meta like this and then hit the Browse button as shown with the arrow (see screenshot below), and screenshot the popup screen?

Ah, that ‘date’ field is the wrong one. Notice the name starts with an underscore?

Note that, with fields made by ACF, when selecting the meta key, note a ‘gotcha’ with ACF ….

… it makes 3 meta keys per field, like this (in this example for a field named ‘land’):

#1 _land
#2 field_52f0fc4334f52
#3 land

In our Meta Key selection list, you need to use key #3, without the underscore at the start of the key name. If you choose #1 by mistake, in the field choices you will see the name of #2.
