    I want to show all members that have their birthday this month (February).
    They are all shown, but not in the proper order of the day. It seems really random.

    This is the code I have: (verjaardag=birthday, dag=day, maand=month)

    <h3>FEBRUARI</h3>
{% set args = {  meta_key:'verjaardag_maand', meta_value:'2', posts_per_page: -1, orderby: { meta_key: 'verjaardag_dag', meta_value_num: 'verjaardag_dag'}, order: 'asc' } %}
{% set users = mb.get_users( args ) %}
{% for user in users %}
    {{ user.verjaardag_dag }} Februari: {{ user.display_name }}

{% endfor %}

    I can't figure out how to set the orderby properly.

    Hello Eddy,

    The parameter meta_key doesn't exist under the parameter orderby when you use the function get_users(). Following the WordPress documentation
    https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_user_query/#order-orderby-parameters

    You can try to use this query args

    {% set args = {  
    meta_query: [
        { key: 'verjaardag_maand', value: '2', compare: '=' }
    ],
    meta_key: 'verjaardag_dag', 
    orderby: 'meta_value_num', 
    order: 'asc',
    posts_per_page: -1
} %}

{% set users = mb.get_users(args) %}

    or ask about the user query args in the WordPress support forum https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/
