- The PR-079 live router cases ran the HivePress rating sort on the whole site with an unqualified DECIMAL: native rounds 4.5 to 5 and orders its many ties by chance, so the id order passed or failed with the query plan. They now send DECIMAL(10,1), as the HivePress Rating field does, and compare each position's native sort key and found_posts; the flat-first / GROUP BY assertions stay.
- Verify: live router 18/18 twice; all suites 56/56
- PR: PR-089b
- A sort-only search (HivePress _sort, no routed filter) LEFT JOINs the flat table to keep posts without a row; it now drives from the flat table (STRAIGHT_JOIN, INNER JOIN) when every post of the type has a flat row. The router gives a new post of a type with its own groups an empty row (wp_insert_post); coverage is one anti-join per group, cached 15 min and per post-mode change (forget_coverage()).
- A flat-first search drops the GROUP BY posts.ID WordPress adds for any tax query when the flat row is the only join (WooCommerce's product_visibility NOT IN on searches is a subquery); a joining tax query keeps it.
- Verify: live router suite (5 new cases, RED before); dev36 rating__desc page, ids identical: native ~3.3 s, 2.1 routing ~1.5–1.9 s, now ~0.51–0.85 s (main query 440 → 46 ms, COUNT 400 → 160 ms). p50 ≤ 300 ms is still not met: page rendering and HivePress's own get_posts() in pre_get_posts (suppress_filters, ~100 ms) remain.

- WooCommerce reads product meta directly and writes stock by SQL, so a flat copy drifted (R-2.1 V1 T4); product meta now stays in native only (plan decision 2). TMDO_Post_Fields registers wp_core, attachment and nav_menu_item. Existing wp_wpdo_post_wc_product tables are left in place and still dropped on uninstall; the orphan restore registers nothing for them while native meta holds the keys; `wp tmdo bridge-restore-native post --group=wc_product --retire` archives them.
- Tests that route products register the former group themselves (tmdo_test_register_wc_product_group(), same name and table); live router Q06 runs on wp_core's _wp_page_template instead of _sku. The post stress tester already skips flat tables that do not exist.
- Verify: PostFieldsRegistrationTest (RED before); dev36: wc_product absent from the registry and not restored as an orphan, a CLI order took stock 452 → 450 in native with no DB error (reverted), drift post 10 groups 0.

- A filtered search ordered by a flat column is rewritten to SELECT STRAIGHT_JOIN … FROM flat INNER JOIN wp_posts, with posts.ID tie-breaks (ours and plugin-appended) read as the equal flat post_id, so MariaDB sorts one table instead of looking every post up and sorting in a temporary table
- Only when the routed conditions already require a flat row on the sort group, without the copy route or a selective post filter; filter tmdo_router_flat_first turns it off; split_the_query compares with the same rewrite
- Verify: tests/live/run.php router (13/13); integration 522; dev36 page SQL Q07 263→147 ms, Q15 250→142 ms; fe.sh hourly_rate__desc 850→367 ms, ids == native
- PR: PR-062c
- posts_request only drops SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS, but WordPress then treated the request as filtered and selected full post rows through a temporary table; split_the_query now keeps the ID-first split for routed searches when nothing else changed the request, and posts_request_ids drops SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS from the split ID query
- Verify: tests/live/run.php router (12/12, IDs-first request, found_posts == native); dev36 fe.sh price 589→340 ms, price__asc 961→427 ms, rating__desc 1724→872 ms, hourly_rate__desc 855→884 ms (was 1206)

- Sort shape (relation OR of NOT EXISTS + EXISTS on one key, named in orderby): drop it from meta_query, LEFT JOIN the flat table and order by its column, ties by ID
- Named routed clause as the sole orderby, and meta_key + meta_value_num (meta_value on string columns) with IS NOT NULL; stay native when the column would not order like CAST(meta_value AS type), orderby has several keys, or meta_value filters
- Verify: tests/live/run.php router (11/11); fe.sh price__asc / hourly_rate__desc / rating__desc ids == native

- posts_join joins the flat table of every routed group (a wp_core key next to a post type group no longer fails with "Unknown column")
- Flat tables are one row per post (UNIQUE post_id): remove the posts_groupby hook; skip the INNER JOIN status/date copy route for NOT EXISTS, which must match posts without a flat row
- Verify: tests/live/run.php router (9/9); qbench Q05 475 == native, no SQL error; price filter EXPLAIN has no Using temporary
- PR: PR-061
- Leave the query to WordPress on OR, nested groups with registered keys, several post types, orderby on a named routed clause, and compare/type pairs whose flat-column semantics differ from native (untyped numeric ranges, CHAR on decimals, NUMERIC on text)
- Wrap LIKE values as %esc_like%; hook pre_get_posts at priority 1000 so plugin clauses (HivePress) are seen
- Verify: wp eval-file tests/live/run.php router (7/7); qbench Q04/Q06/Q08/Q14/Q16 == native on dev36
