We have a site where content was created in a post AND pages. I can use a category or tag to filter the content but I noticed Query Loop does not have a way to display both posts and pages in the same loop? Is there a way to accomplish this if I can tag each post + page with a specific Category?

Hi Ian,
Add a class to the Grid block nested in the query loop block, eg.
my-class-name, then add this snippet:add_filter( 'generateblocks_query_loop_args', function( $query_args, $attributes ) { if ( ! empty( $attributes['className'] ) && strpos( $attributes['className'], 'my-class-name' ) !== false ) { $query_args['post_type'] = array('page', 'post'); } return $query_args; }, 10, 2 );Thank you Ying! I can see both Pages and Posts in the loops result now. I am not able to sort by the ACF custom field title. Would you mind taking a look? Login info provided.

Hi there,
orderby custom fields is not something the REST API supports, so until we build our own function into GB Pro it too requires a filter. But you can combine it with Yings args filter into one snipept:
add_filter( 'generateblocks_query_loop_args', function( $query_args, $attributes ) { // Check your logic to apply the filtering only to specific loop if ( ! empty( $attributes['className'] ) && strpos( $attributes['className'], 'my-class-name' ) !== false ) { // Merge the current $query_args which contains arguments defined in the editor with your ordering arguments return array_merge( $query_args, array( 'post_type' => array('page', 'post'), 'meta_key' => 'your_custom_field_key', 'orderby' => 'meta_value_num', 'order' => 'desc', ) ); } return $query_args; }, 10, 2 );Thank you Ying and David! I tweaked orderby and this seem to work:
/** query loop to display pages and posts */ add_filter( 'generateblocks_query_loop_args', function( $query_args, $attributes ) { // Check your logic to apply the filtering only to specific loop if ( ! empty( $attributes['className'] ) && strpos( $attributes['className'], 'my-class-name' ) !== false ) { // Merge the current $query_args which contains arguments defined in the editor with your ordering arguments return array_merge( $query_args, array( 'post_type' => array('page', 'post'), 'meta_key' => 'country_name', 'orderby' => 'country_name', 'order' => 'asc', ) ); } return $query_args; }, 10, 2 );Glad to hear that. And thanks for sharing your final code!
