apply_filters_ref_array( ‘posts_join’, string $join, WP_Query $query )

Filters the JOIN clause of the query.

Parameters

$joinstring
The JOIN clause of the query.
$queryWP_Query
The WP_Query instance (passed by reference).

More Information

When you use the wp_query object to run a query, not all tables are queried by default. For example, a query on the blog archive will only query the posts table. If you wanted to display posts that have specific meta value you will have to alter the wp_query object to include the required meta key.
