  • This is a simple SQL query, you may do it using WP_query. If you're not familiar with SQL, you may find many examples of WP_query... After that, it depends what your parameters are (static, comming from user...)

You will need to add custom query vars:

add_filter('rest_query_vars', 'wpse225850_add_rest_query_vars');

function wpse225850_add_rest_query_vars($query_vars) {

    $query_vars = array_merge( $query_vars, array('meta_key', 'meta_value', 'meta_compare') );

    return $query_vars;

}

Now, get your posts at example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?filter[meta_key]=property_featured&filter[meta_value]=1.

You can follow this ticket for more info.

  • @Dan Its works fine. But if the meta value was empty means that post also returning with response so this case empty field post are not able to come right. And also is it possible to get filter works for multiple custome fields here
