What makes Advanced Query Loop special?
Nee…
So useful – particularly for building a calendar with the date filters.
This is a brilliant plugin the surfaces all of the additional options that are often needed for the query block.
If you find yourself needing to exclude categories from queries, build more complex taxonomy queries or even build meta queries it is a must have.
Thanks so much for making this available to everyone Ryan and well done on a great plugin.
This plugin is solving the issue I have spent all morning trying to figure out: Excluding Certain Categories from the Query Loop block. The options this plugin adds to the core query loop block are brilliant and I don’t understand how WordPress missed it. I have only scratched the surface of this plugin and I’m sure I will discover more as I dive into the nuances of this plugin.
Brilliant, Simply Brilliant!
This is pretty useful to extend/replace the ability of the core query block and it works like a charm with the block theme’s post patterns as well.
pls note the CPT must have ‘public’ and ‘show_in_rest’ args set to true
i would give an additional half star if i could to excellent customer service and explanation by plugin author
