Daniele Raimondi answers:

to query a CPT classified under a particular term of your custom taxonomy, you can try:

$args = array(
'post_type' => 'projects'
'taxonomy' => 'projectcat',
'term' => '---a term of projectcat taxonomy---',
'orderby' => 'date', //that's default
'order' => 'DESC', //that's default
'post_status' => 'publish',
);
$myloop = new WP_Query($args);?>



If you wanna query using a custom field, take a look [[LINK href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/WP_Query"]]here
[[/LINK]] @Custom Field Parameters

For example, if you have a numeric CF (say "price") and wanna test it against a min and max value you can add to the args above, a piece of code like this

$args['meta_query']= array(
array(
'key' => 'price',
'value' => array( $min, $max ),
'type' => 'numeric',
'compare' => 'BETWEEN'
),
array(
'key' => 'price',
'value' => 1,
'type' => 'numeric'
)
);
