Plugin overrides wp_query orderby settings and sorting of posts in admin view

    My site uses several wp_query calls to list posts in various orders depending on the page.

    This plugin was over-riding all ‘orderby’ settings and would only list posts in the menu order.

    It was also stopping me from being able to list my posts by date in the back-end which was extremely frustrating.

    If you’re using this plugin purely for a visual reference in the back-end then use another plugin.

    Hi, zactoff

    Today, ver.3.0.2 released.
    Please try this.

    Thanks.

    I have the latest version (3.0.3) and I’m still experiencing this plugin overriding ALL ‘orderby’ settings for a custom wp_query on a custom page within the admin.

    If I deactivate the plugin my posts display in the order I have determined in my code. If I activate the plugin again they ignore my orderby settings .

    Hello,

    I have worked around this issue by adding the following code to the mu-plugins folder to disable this plugin on my custom admin page (rentallist):

    add_filter( 'option_active_plugins', 'disable_intuitive_order_plugin' );

function disable_intuitive_order_plugin($plugins){

    if($_GET['page'] == 'rentallist') {

        $key = array_search( 'intuitive-custom-post-order/intuitive-custom-post-order.php' , $plugins );

        if ( false !== $key ) {
            unset( $plugins[$key] );
        }
    }

    return $plugins;
}

    This is based on the following article: https://lowgravity.pl/blog/quick-tip-how-to-disable-wp-plugin-on-certain-page/

    Whilst this works it should not be necessary. The plugin should be fixed to prevent it overriding orderby parameters specified in custom queries for use in the admin area.
