using a magic field for orderby

[Alvar Sirlin]

How can this be done?

To further complicate, I need to already use meta_key for a different value:

$args = array(

   'post_type'       => array('post','page'),

   'numberposts' => 3,

   'meta_key'=>'slideshow_include_in_slideshow',

   'meta_value'=> true,

   'orderby'=>'slideshow_slideshow_order DESC'

);

thanks

Bump.

This is a WP_Query question not a Magic Fields question.  Start here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Order_.26_Orderby_Parameters

Also, you to help with the multiple meta fields you should ctrl+f "multiple custom field".

To clarify, you can query multiple meta fields using 

'meta_query' => array(

array(

<meta_query_args> 

),

array(

<other_meta_query_args>

)

)
