* Could this be an issue with the database?
* I feel like the above should work
* typing in the string works, but the identical string given through a variable
doesn’t. The var_dump suggests that they are identical from what I can see. Anyone
have any insight?

* It still doesn’t work even with the compare line

* [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/displaying-posts-where-a-certain-custom-field-is-equal-to-a-get-variable/#post-3177067)
* So I’m starting to figure it out.
* I changed the code to below and it works. However, obviously, the value is hard
coded in.
* ```
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'earnings', // use to be stock
'posts_per_page' => 1,
'offset' => $_GET['offset'],
'meta_query' => array(
array(
'key' => 'sector',
'value' => 'Healthcare'
))
);
```
* If I try to have it pull from the GET variable in the URL like below, it does
not work.
* ```
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'earnings', // use to be stock
'posts_per_page' => 1,
'offset' => $_GET['offset'],
'meta_query' => array(
array(
'key' => 'sector',
'value' => $_GET['sector']
))
);
```
* At this point I’m sure it is a layup, can anyone see any syntax issues?

* Yes, this is exactly what I was looking for, I just did not know how wordpress
structures itself. Thank you!

* I may want to include more than only that specific post type in this “mini-homepage”
though.
* Archives by default only display one type of post right?
* In addition it is dynamically generated by the URL it seems like, so a user could
arrive at a archive page with no stock just by modifying the URL. It doesn’t
seem like a good idea for SEO purposes either since it is only one URL with dynamically
generated content?

* ```
if ($_GET['symbol']) {
$args['meta_query'][] = array(
'key' => 'symbol',
'value' => $_GET['symbol'],
'compare' => '='
);
}
```
* and it seems to work

* I had 1.52 and everything was working fine except for anonymous posts not working(
but I believe you said it was broken on facebooks end).
* Then I saw the update to 1.6 so I thought it might have been fixed.
* I did an automatic install, and the plugin doesn’t work at all now.
* On the posts, the “loading” splash is displayed indefinitely.
* I’m on WP 3.04
* And I should note that I have the default facebook like button code from FB on
the page, as well as the Addthis widget

* the post in that link says that the man is using “the text2tag plugin (this plugin
adds all postcontent to a custom taxonomy as tags)”.
* Do I have to install that plugin for any of those codes to work ?
