Multiple criteria on $query->set with results based on OR instead of AND

Hi,

I have a code in functions.php to show only aside, quote, and image post formats on home page. This one:

function mostrar_capa( $query ) {
	if ( $query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() ) {
		$query->set( 'post_format', array('post-format-aside', 'post-format-image', 'post-format-quote' ) );
	}
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'mostrar_capa' );

It works flawlessly! However, there are a few other type of content that I would like to show on home page alongside those post formats. For instance, posts from a different post type called “podcast”. I tried this modification:

function mostrar_capa( $query ) {
	if ( $query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() ) {
		$query->set( 'post_format', array('post-format-aside', 'post-format-image', 'post-format-quote' ) );
		$query->set( 'post_type', 'podcast' );
	}
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'mostrar_capa' );

It worked, but not as I intended. This code sums both lines (AND), so it only shows posts of “podcast” type that are at the same time an aside, quote, or image. I want those lines to be kind of independent (OR), so if only one criteria/line is true, the post shows up.

(I checked if $query->set( 'post_type', 'podcast' ); is valid running it by itself. It works.)

Any idea how can I do this? My coding level is pretty basic, so I’d appreciate detailed replies.

Thanks!
