This WordPress plugin allows blog admins to create pages with custom sorted lists of posts using simple queries specified in a shortcode.
As of April 2026, WP Meta Sort Posts is a WordPress meta plugin with 20 active installations and a 0/5 rating0. It has been downloaded 3.8K+ times in total. Requires WordPress false+ and PHP false+. Available on WordPress.org since 2012. Last updated 13 years ago — may have compatibility concerns. Top alternative: Advanced Custom Fields (ACF®).
I initially developed WP Meta Sort Posts plugin because I needed to be able to create archive-style pages for posts based on custom fields. I quickly realized that it would be just as easy to knock down all the walls and allow for custom sorted pages to be created based on any combination of WordPress query variables. WP Meta Sort Posts is still in its initial beta release and I welcome all feedback and feature suggestions.
