taxonomy-custom.php : show only custom posts with a specific custom field value

  • Hello,

    I have a WordPress site with a custom post type “formation“, a custom taxonomy “domain” (specifically used for my custom post type), and a custom field “formation_type” used on my “formation” posts.

    What I’m trying to do is to customize the display of my template page taxonomy-domain.php, so that when I visit “mysite.com/domain/social“, I can sort the “formation” posts filed under the “social” taxonomy term, based on the value of a specific custom field : “formation_type”.

    I’ll show first the posts that have the value “certification”, then the posts that have the value “diploma”, etc.

    So far I have tried numerous solution, but can’t seem to find how to do that.
    How would you do that?
    Do I need to use multiple loops?

    I came up with a working code that’ll show me only the post linked to a specific term and with a specific custom field value (“certification” on this example) :

    if ( have_posts() ) :

	global $wp_query;
	query_posts(
		array_merge(
			$wp_query->query,
			array(
			'meta_key'	=> 'formation_type',
			'meta_value'	=> 'certification',
			)
		)
	);

	// Start the Loop.
	while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();

		get_template_part( 'content-domain' );

	endwhile;
	// Previous/next page navigation.
	twentyfourteen_paging_nav();

else :
	// If no content, include the "No posts found" template.
	get_template_part( 'content', 'none' );

endif;

    However I need to perform the same query on the same page with my other custom fields value.

    My aim is to display a subtilte “Certifications“, followed by all the posts that have the “certification” custom field value.
    Then a subtitle called “Diploma“, followed by all the posts that have “diploma” custom field value.
    And so on.

    Any idea?
