Checking if a specific post is a draft? after wp_get_recent_posts();

  • Hello,
    What I’m doing is checking for the latest post(s)
    I use
    $recent_posts = wp_get_recent_posts();

    to get the recent posts and then

    foreach( $recent_posts as $post ){
				$wpname = $post["post_title"];
				$wplink = get_permalink( $post["ID"] );
				echo '
				[WP_CFG]<br>
				wppname="'.$wpname.'"
				wpplink="'.$wplink.'"
				wppactive="1"';
				break;
			}

    to output the latest post
    but I need to check if the post is a draft or not
    so if it is it will continue to the next post…

    But I don’t know if and if yes how to check if a post is for draft or not.

    So can you check for this and if yes how?

    but I can’t believe that anyone looking to help someone now will ever find this thread even by looking for the ‘no reply’ threads…

    if($post['post_status'] == "publish"){ //do something }

else { // it's not published (i.e. draft or other) so do nothing }

    hope that helps?

    if in doubt simply do a print_r($post) and it will show the full array with keys and values.

    that’s how i found the ‘post_status’ key

    MaFt

    using

    if($post->post_status  == "publish"){ //do something }

else { // it's not published (i.e. draft or other) so do nothing }
