get-posts

You can set the orderby to post__in. Here is a superior post loop: $args = [ ‘post__in’ => [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ], ‘orderby’ => ‘post__in’, ]; $q = new \WP_Query( $args ); if ( $q->have_posts() ) { while ( $q->have_posts() ) { $q->the_post(); ?> <article id=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?>” <?php post_class(); ?>> <?php the_title(); … Read more

I believe the issue is that the underlying MySQL query requires a LIMIT clause to go with the OFFSET clause. (I tried to verify this about MySQL and found this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/255517/mysql-offset-infinite-rows ). Since MySQL can’t accept those parameters (offset without a limit), WordPress seems to drop the offset argument. It’s still a little hacky, but … Read more

You overwrite the value of $post when you output the first set of posts, so it’s no longer the same post object as your single post. You can either wp_reset_postdata() after each loop (which you should do after the last one anyway), or assign $post->ID to some other var before the loop, and reference that … Read more

If we do not specify post types, WordPress searches only ‘posts’ $actus_new = get_posts( array( ‘post_type’ => array( ‘cantine’, ‘post’ ), ‘post__in’ => $ids, ‘posts_per_page’ => 5, ) );

Actually, memory was exhausted. Someone has copy-pasted an actual 2MB base64-encoded image into the post content, var_dump was trying to output it. Had to delete the image via PHPMyAdmin, because the WP editor won’t open. Once it had been deleted, the problem was gone.

only retrieve posts with that meta key: $rand_posts = get_posts(array( ‘numberposts’ => 4, ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’, ‘post_type’ => ‘ansatte’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’, ‘meta_key’ => ’employee_pic’, )); or maybe use WP 3.1’s meta_query: $rand_posts = get_posts(array( ‘numberposts’ => 4, ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’, ‘post_type’ => ‘ansatte’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’, ‘meta_query’ => array( array( ‘key’ => ’employee_pic’, ‘value’ … Read more

you don’t need to call wp_reset_postdata() for get_posts() because it does not actually modify global variable $wp_query. $posts though is a global variable used by WordPress. Change that to a new name and what you have should work. $args = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘quote’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 1, ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’ ); $quote_posts = get_posts( $args … Read more
