Ability to order by a custom field

[sewmyheadon]

(such as created by Advanced Custom Fields)

Actually, upon further research, this already supported with standard WP query variables:

[ic_add_posts showposts='10' category='sports' orderby='meta_value_num'  meta_key='sort_custom_field_name_here' order='ASC']

using the special orderby key of "meta_value" or "meta_value_num"

Howdy @cyrrill,

Thanks so much for reporting back!

We're working on a few updates to the plugin and the docs and will make sure to test and include this so others can benefit too.

Cheers!
