Yes I did misunderstand. Thank you! Now works like a charm with no need to sort.

I have a similar need, but when I use the customfieldname attribute, I get the Textpattern’s notice that this attribute isn’t found!

I am running TXP 4.3.0.

Until you describe your situation a little more verbose: Follow the link in Els’ signature named “Check the names of your custom fields”.

Apologies if I’m misunderstanding, but you need to use the actual custom field name as the attribute. E.g.,

<txp:article_custom product="4" />

if you have a custom field named “product”. Check out the link suggested by Uli to make sure you’re using a valid custom field name.

I am trying to get this snippet work:

<txp:article_custom section=“something” customfieldname=“my_field” limit=“10” form=“some-form” />

When I load the page, I get: Textpattern Notice: Unknown tag attribute: customfieldname

:(

Sorry guys, am laughing and am furious at my silliness!!

Should have used the actual custom field’s name as the attribute … whereas I was using ‘customfieldname’ literally :)
