Query String Looper - Order by metakey and ACF field

[stilemas]

Hi!

I’m trying to build something with the looper tool and using the following query string:

post_type=personnel&orderby=meta_value&meta_key={{dc:acf:post_field field=‘c4a-personnel-last-name’}}&order=DESC

Essentially, what I’m trying to do is build out a personnel / team directory and have the list sorted by their last name. I have it set up like this:

• Custom post type for “Personnel”
• ACF Field for their “last name”

I’m trying to have the looper build this out through a query string, but it’s not sorting by that value.

Any ideas?

Oh, maybe I solved this?

I simply removed the dynamic content tags and my query string looks like this and seems to be working now:

post_type=personnel&orderby=meta_value&meta_key=c4a-personnel-last-name&order=ASC
