How to SQL query posts IDs by categories AND authors?
Not the best solution 😛 but this could help you: select distinct(p.ID) from wp_posts p, wp_term_relationships r, wp_term_taxonomy tt, wp_terms t WHERE p.post_author in (1, 2, 3) and r.object_id = p.ID and tt.term_taxonomy_id = r.term_taxonomy_id and tt.taxonomy = ‘category’ and tt.term_id = t.term_id and t.term_id in (1, 2, 3);
