“Learn to customize Views queries in Drupal 9 using ORDER BY FIELD() for tailored sorting. Code example and explanation provided.”

Code Example:

/**
 * Implements hook_views_query_alter().
 */
function mymodule_views_query_alter(ViewExecutable $view, QueryPluginBase $query) {
  if ($view->id() == 'my_view') {
    $query->orderBy('FIELD(node_field, :order_values)', [':order_values' => $custom_order]);
  }
}

Explanation: This code alters a Views query (mymodule_views_query_alter) by adding a custom ORDER BY clause using the FIELD() function for precise sorting based on specified values ($custom_order).
