    Hi,

    I keep searching for a way to achieve this but can’t find a solution.

    I’m using the Relevanssi plugin (which works great by the way) and would like to sort the search results by one custom field.

    Example:

    All posts that have the “on” value for the “featured” custom field should be displayed on top of the results..

    Any ideas?

    I’ve had a look and tried to implement the weights filter but no success..

    Thanks

    That would be easiest to do with relevanssi_hits_filter. It would go like this:

    add_filter('relevanssi_hits_filter', 'featured_on_first');
function featured_on_first($hits) {
    $featured = array();
    $not_featured = array();
    foreach ( $hits[0] as $hit ) {
        $is_featured = get_post_meta( $hit->ID, 'featured', true );
        'on' == $is_featured ? $featured[] = $hit : $not_featured[] = $hit;
    }
    $hits[0] = array_merge( $featured, $not_featured );
    return $hits;
}

    Add this to your theme functions.php, for example.
