 * Hi, I am using your plugin since today to retrieve all products that have the
   value “fokusklasse” in the acf field “eventart”. Works perfectly, I get my four
   products that correspond to the request in the JSON.
 * My second step should now be to sort the four products according to their acf
   field “sortierungsdatum” in ascending order. The value of this field is a date
   Y-m-d but formatted as Ymd. So it’s basically a number, right? I just cannot 
   get the right order.
 * Can you have a look at my URL and probably help me with the parameters for ordering?
   When I change asc to desc, the order changes but it is never in the right order.

 * Thank you in advance! Micha

 * Hello,
 * Sorting is out of the scope at the moment. We’ll consider adding it in.
 * Have you tried [`orderby` from WP REST API](https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/reference/posts/#arguments)?
