How can i create a navigation menu to order my videos by: WordPress

Oleg Butuzov answers:

1) Most Recent
2) Most viewed
3) Top Rated
4) Recently viewed
5) Most popular
5) Popular tag
------------------------------------------------
1) simple link to the home page or blog home
2) to the page with custom query loop (1)
3) rating unfortunatly stored in separate table - so you will need to customize the function or write your own.
4) to the page with custom query loop (2)
5) by using <?php echo get_tag_link( 2 ); ?> where is 2 is your id of the popular tag
---------------------------
here is a reference for a query loops and usage of postmeta as query loops.

2) you will need to create a page with a custom query loop.
<?php wp_reset_query();?>
<?php query_posts('meta_key=views'); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<li>
<?php the_title(); ?>
</li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php wp_reset_query();?>



you still qill be require to modificate quesry to your needs and use filter for query (witch is parse the SQL make order).

4) i suppose you will need to use a custom function to store revetnly viewed video posts.

something like that

Code for single post template

if (!get_option('recentvideosview')){
add_option('recentvideosview', array(), 1);
}

$data = get_option('recentvideosview');
array_push($data, $post->ID);
if (count($data) > 5 ){
unset($data[5]);
}
update_option('recentvideosview', $data);



And use wp_query loop as described in article above (9th tutor), insted using sticky_posts use recentvideosview
