Querying using Custom Fields (2 posts)

    Hello,

    I'm trying to find a solution for my website oldtenspeedgallery.com.
    The issue is this:

    I would like to use a non-tag non-category method (perhaps Custom Fields) to call up posts that share an attribute e.g., owner.

    I understand that this what Tags and Categories are for, but I am already using them in another capacity.

    An example:

    In the past I have used the search to call posts that share non-tag and non-category content.

    ...speedgallery.com/?s=david+m

    This works ok, but as my site has grown, it begins to pull non-relevant posts.

    I would love the ability to assemble posts like so:

    ...speedgallery.com/?owner=david+m
    or

    ...speedgallery.com/owner/david-m/

    Can this be done using Custom Fields?

    If so, how?

    Thanks,

    Cameron

    If you want to use custom fields to pull in content, then you want to query by meta.
