WP_query repeater "NOT LIKE" dosen't working - php

Question

I have very annoying problem with WP_query and repeater . I try display something if $_GET is not equal to value in my DB. But when compare => NOT LIKE it now working correctly.
Here is my code:
function wyszukiwanie_trasy()
{
echo '<form action="" method="get">';
echo '<input type="text" name="od" placeholder="Stacja początkowa">';
echo '<input type="text" name="do" placeholder="Stacja końcowa">';
echo '<input type="date" name="data">';
echo '<input type="submit" value="Wyszukaj">';
echo '</form>';
$loop = new WP_Query(array('meta_query' => array(
'relation' => 'AND',
array(
'key' => 'date_%_daty_wykluczone',
'value' => str_replace("-","",$_GET['data'],$i),
'compare' => 'NOT LIKE'),
),
array(
'value' => $_GET['od'],
),
array(
'value' => $_GET['do'],
),'post_type' => 'trasy', 'posts_per_page' => -1));
while ($loop->have_posts()) : $loop->the_post();
$id = get_the_ID();
if($_GET['od'] && $_GET['do'] && $_GET['data'] && $_GET['od']!=$_GET['do'])
{
if( have_rows('location') ):
// loop through the rows of data
while ( have_rows('location') ) : the_row();
// display a sub field value
?>
<span style="font-weight: bold"><?php the_sub_field('lokacja');?></span>
<?php
echo ' ';
endwhile;
echo '<br />';
else :
echo 'Brak połączeń';
endif;
}
echo $loop->request;
endwhile; wp_reset_query();
}
Here is my SQL request:
SELECT wp_posts.* FROM wp_posts INNER JOIN wp_postmeta ON ( wp_posts.ID = wp_postmeta.post_id ) WHERE 1=1 AND ( ( wp_postmeta.meta_key LIKE 'date_%_daty_wykluczone' AND wp_postmeta.meta_value LIKE '%20180715%' ) ) AND wp_posts.post_type = 'trasy' AND (wp_posts.post_status = 'publish' OR wp_posts.post_status = 'acf-disabled' OR wp_posts.post_status = 'private') GROUP BY wp_posts.ID ORDER BY wp_posts.post_date DESC
Imo is is something wrong with 'key' => 'date_%_daty_wykluczone', in my DB that meta keys looks like: date_0_daty_wykluczone date_1_daty_wykluczone, cause when i change this 'key' => 'date_%_daty_wykluczone', to 'key' => 'date_1_daty_wykluczone', 'NOT LIKE' works correctly
Thanks in advance :)

Try this code structure,
Using the "Relation" for the Meta Query, you can select multiple Meta Keys. You can change the "Compare" to any of the operations available for that function. (From the Codex) compare (string) - Operator to test. Possible values are '=', '!=', '>', '>=', '<', '<=', 'LIKE', 'NOT LIKE', 'IN', 'NOT IN', 'BETWEEN', 'NOT BETWEEN', 'EXISTS' and 'NOT EXISTS'. Default value is '='.
// WP_Query arguments
$args = array (
'post_type' => 'your-post-type',
'meta_query' => array(
'relation' => 'AND',
array(
'key' => 'color',
'value' => 'Red',
'compare' => 'LIKE',
),
array(
'key' => 'color',
'value' => 'Plain',
'compare' => 'Like'
),
),
);
// The Query
$query = new WP_Query( $args );
// The Loop
if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
$query->the_post();
// do something
}
} else {
// no posts found
}
// Restore original Post Data
wp_reset_postdata();
Meta_query compare operator explanation
The first several work about like you would expect:
= equals
!= does not equal
> greater than
>= greater than or equal to
< less than
<= less than or equal to
LIKE and NOT LIKE are SQL operators that let you add in wild-card symbols, so you could have a meta query that looks like this:
array(
'key' => 'name',
'value' => 'Pat',
'compare' => 'LIKE'
)
This would return all posts where the meta value "name" has the string "Pat". In this case, "Pat" "Patricia" and "Patrick" would all be returned back to you. There's a non-WordPress tutorial explanation here
