Title: In-Series plugin database error Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # In-Series plugin database error * [antoniamar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/antoniamar/) * (@antoniamar) * [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/in-series-plugin-database-error/) * Hi, just installed In-Series 2 (great plugin idea). I put the and tags into my theme’s index.php file (don’t have a single.php) but I got a database error for each tag when I created post# 1 and post #2 to test it out. I get the error no matter where in the files I place the tag. Any suggestions on what to do? These are the error messages: * WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax near ‘(meta_value AS SIGNED) DESC LIMIT 1’ at line 1] SELECT post_id FROM wp_postmeta INNER JOIN wp_posts ON wp_postmeta.post_id=wp_posts.ID WHERE post_id IN (49,50) AND meta_key =’series_order’ AND meta_value < 2 AND wp_posts.post_author = ‘1’ AND wp_posts. post_date < ‘2006-01-14 18:50:49′ AND (wp_posts.post_status=’publish’ OR wp_posts. post_status=’static’) ORDER BY CAST(meta_value AS SIGNED) DESC LIMIT 1 * WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax near ‘(meta_value AS SIGNED) > 2 AND wp_posts.post_author = ‘1’ AND wp_posts.post_date’ at line 1] SELECT post_id FROM wp_postmeta INNER JOIN wp_posts ON wp_postmeta.post_id =wp_posts.ID WHERE post_id IN (49,50) AND meta_key=’series_order’ AND CAST(meta_value AS SIGNED) > 2 AND wp_posts.post_author = ‘1’ AND wp_posts.post_date < ‘2006- 01-14 18:50:49′ AND (wp_posts.post_status=’publish’ OR wp_posts.post_status=’ static’) ORDER BY CAST(meta_value AS SIGNED) ASC LIMIT 1 The topic ‘In-Series plugin database error’ is closed to new replies. * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 0 replies * 1 participant * Last reply from: [antoniamar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/antoniamar/) * Last activity: [20 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/in-series-plugin-database-error/) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
