Retrieve Custom Fields in custom Query?

  • I’m following this tutorial:

    https://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/reusable-custom-meta-boxes-part-2-advanced-fields/

    to create a checkbox group in a meta box.

    But what I can’t for the life of me figure out, is how to go about creating a query with the custom fields.

    My end goal is to create an archive page of posts that have a checkmark in the checkmark group.

    This is what I have right now — where have I strayed?

    $args =  array (

		  'meta_query' => array (
			array(
			      'key' => 'my_checkbox_group',
			      'value' => 'my_checkbox_value',
			      )
			)
		  );
  $query = new WP_Query($args);

    When I do print_r($query), there are no posts found for this query (and I verifed that I have several posts with “my_checkbox_value” checked…

    Thoughts?
