Filter: wpestate_query_2026_meta_query This filter gives you direct access to the meta query clauses that the Query 2026 engine has built. Meta queries are the part of a WordPress database query that filters posts by their custom field (post meta) values — for example, filtering properties by price range, number of bedrooms, property size, or any […]

Filter: wpestate_query_2026_search_params This filter fires after the Query 2026 engine has finished parsing a search form submission into a canonical parameter array. When a visitor uses the advanced search form on your site, the browser sends raw $_GET parameters (like ?property_city=new-york&price_low=100000). The engine parses these raw values into a clean, structured $params array that the […]

Filter: wpestate_query_2026_params This is the most versatile filter in the Query 2026 pipeline. It fires after all parameters have been normalized (sanitized, type-cast, and merged with context defaults), but before any WP_Query arguments are built. At this point, you have access to the complete, clean parameter array and can inject, remove, or modify any value […]

Filter: wpestate_query_2026_context_defaults This filter allows you to change the base default values that every property query starts with. These defaults control settings like how many properties are shown per page, what sort order is used, and whether the query returns full post objects or just IDs. The WP Residence query engine uses four different contexts […]
