    I’ve added the ability to order by meta_key to the development version, and it will be in the new version of Display Posts Shortcode (should be out in the next few days).

    Here’s how you’ll do it:

    [display-posts orderby=”meta_value_num” meta_key=”_cs-expire-date”]

    For your specific need, make sure Content Scheduler is storing the date as a UNIX timestamp.

    Thanks for your reply, Bill

    I’ve installed last version and I’m using this:

    [display-posts orderby=”meta_value_num” meta_key=”_cs-expire-date”]

    But it doesn′t work for me. Meta-key “_cs-expire-date” is stored as string with the next format (example): 2013-02-15 00:00:00

    I guess when you say Content Scheduler must store the date as timestamp it has to be a numeric value, ?isn′t it?

    ?Is there any other way to fix this?

    Thanks one more time

    [display-posts orderby=”meta_value” meta_key=”_cs-expire-date”]
