List of faves not printing?

    Hi I’m trying to display a list of fave posts on a buddypress site, each user has a tab for faves that’s visible to all. I had it working once but now it no longer does – I’ve got to be doing something wrong with this code, but I can’t see what, anyone got any ideas? 

    $favorites = get_user_favorites();
if ( $favorites ) : // This is important: if an empty array is passed into the WP_Query parameters, all posts will be returned
$paged = ( get_query_var('paged') ) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; // If you want to include pagination
$favorites_query = new WP_Query(array(
'post_type' => 'post', // If you have multiple post types, pass an array
'posts_per_page' => -1,
'ignore_sticky_posts' => true,
'post__in' => $favorites,
'paged' => $paged // If you want to include pagination, and have a specific posts_per_page set
));
if ( $favorites_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $favorites_query->have_posts() ) : $favorites_query->the_post();
echo get_the_title();
endwhile;
next_posts_link( 'Older Favorites', $favorites_query->max_num_pages );
previous_posts_link( 'Newer Favorites' );
endif; wp_reset_postdata();
else :
echo "Please select an item for favorite post list";
endif;
}

    The fave buttons appear and are clickable so that side of things is working fine. Thanks

    Hi, to update, when I use the shortcode in a page, it will display a list of links. I displayed the clear button and used it, and checked the content in the tab on the buddypress profile, and it showed the message that appears when the faves are empty, so that boils it down to my having somehow mucked up the code to display the faved posts. When I like a post, that message disappears leaving a blank space.

    The code above is in functions, within some code for a function I’m using to display a tab on every buddypress profile – in a child file.

    The tab element of the code is fine, I switched out the code above for something else and it worked fine.

    I tried to switch out the code I have for a fresh paste of the code at github (including my loop) but it still doesn’t work… what have I done in the code above to muck it up? Thanks

    Ah, whoops sorry, changed post type line to:

    `’post_type’ => ‘event’,’location’,’post’,

    and that did it.
