Order entities by meta data
By adrew22a
I have some entities with a unixtime stamp as a metadata value. I would like to sort these entities based off that metadata value. How would this be done?
Example: $entity->customtime = time();

Your question is similar to the previous one.
Add
'order_by_metadata' => [
'name' => 'customtime',
'direction' => 'DESC',
'as' => 'integer',
],
as option within elgg_get_entities or elgg_list_entities. DESC or ASC sets the direction the results are ordered.
