There is not quite any clean way to query for “this set of conditions oh and also something completely unrelated as well”.
There are multiple ways to handle it, few of them being:
- query two things and deal with combining in template or around (easy, pain with pagination)
- hook into
WP_Query
and mess with SQL (easy… if you are good with SQL) - query or otherwise produce combined set of post IDs, then query for that set (can get heavy, but pretty robust overall)
