# Views plugin compatibility?

 * Hi. Great plugin! Any chance this could be made compatible with the [Views](https://wp-types.com/home/views-create-elegant-displays-for-your-content/)
   plugin?
 * The Views plugin is a gui to build/display post queries and there’s an option
   to select what to sort a query by. Menu Order is one of those options (which 
   makes your Reorder Posts plugin compatible), and custom fields are options well.
   Custom fields from other themes/plugins are typically shown, but the Reorder 
   by Term field (_reorder_term_) does not show up.
 * My guess is that this is because the field starts with an underscore and is thus
   a [hidden field](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_post_meta#Hidden_Custom_Fields).
   Perhaps the Views plugin does not allow sorting by hidden fields. Would you be
   willing to update this plugin so the field is not hidden? Or perhaps there is
   another way to make these two plugins compatible?
 * Thanks for considering this!
    Eric

   of you sending me a copy to test?

 * I sent you an email expressing the same.

 * Closing because Views has an option to show hidden custom fields.
