GenerateBlocks Query Loop Filter by Custom Field

Hi there,

it would require some PHP to write your own query args using the GB generateblocks_query_loop_args hook.
See here fore some examples:

https://docs.generateblocks.com/article/order-query-loop-by-custom-field/

For your specific needs you would do something like this:

add_filter( 'generateblocks_query_loop_args', function( $query_args, $attributes ) {

    // apply filter if loop has class: order-by-priority
    if ( ! is_admin() && ! empty( $attributes['className'] ) && strpos( $attributes['className'], 'current-events' ) !== false ) {
       
        $new_query_args = array(
            'meta_query' => array(
                array(
                    'key' => 'event_date', // Assuming 'event_date' is your custom field name
                    'value' => date( 'Y-m-d' ), 
                    'compare' => '>=', 
                    'type' => 'DATE',
                ),
            ),
        );

        // Merge new query arguments with existing ones
        $query_args = array_merge( $query_args, $new_query_args );
    }
    return $query_args;
}, 10, 2 );

Note here: 'current-events' ) !== false ) is where i set the class of current-events which is the class you use in Step 1 of the aboce doc.

And here: 'key' => 'event_date', // Assuming 'event_date' is your custom field name you define the custom field name.

Ah damnit… i updated the code above ( Where i forgot to merge the args back in ).
Give that a try

You’re welcome
