Hi there
Just taking a look at this.
The reason we implemented the edit_query_args filter is exactly for this reason, the arguments get passed through to our count functions too, so these should be updated, and its why this filter should be used over the WP pre_get_posts…
So, this is odd.
2 things I would suggest:
1) We are only trying to edit the $query_args (more specifically the meta query), not replace all of them (by using = on the variable you replace anything in the array already), perhaps this is causing an issue. I would change your code above to:
function filter_upcoming_events( $query_args, $sfid ) {
if($sfid==29642)
{
$query_args["meta_query"] = array(
"key" => "event_date_time",
"value" => time() - (60 * 60 * 2),
"compare" => ">="
),
"meta_key" => "event_date_time",
"order" => "ASC",
"orderby" => "meta_value",
);
}
return $query_args;
}
add_filter( 'sf_edit_query_args', 'filter_upcoming_events', 20, 2 );
I would also make sure, that any Post Meta settings, defined in the settings form, are removed / disabled, as well as the order results option in posts tab in your search form (this is all just to be safe and ensure no conflicts).
2) You could have a pre_get_posts somewhere else in your setup, causing this unusual behaviour, but if using the post meta settings in the form works fine (with the counts) then this may not be the issue. Lets see about option 1 first.
Let me know how you get on.
Thanks
