Retrieve Multiple Custom Post Type Posts by Using a List of ID's

    Getting really stuck on this one:

    $myNewQuery = new WP_Query (‘post_type=testimonial&post_status=publish&showposts=3&p=124,139’);

    This query only returns the first post with ID=124.

    Is there a way to retrieve multiple posts for a custom post type when using a list of ID’s???

    Thanks for your help!

  • Try:

    $myNewQuery = new WP_Query ('post_type' => 'testimonial', 'post_status' => 'publish', 'posts_per_page' => 3, 'post__in' => array( 124,139) );

    Thanks esmi!

    Ahh, this worked:

    $myNewQuery = new WP_Query (array('post_type' => 'testimonial', 'post_status' => 'publish', 'posts_per_page' => 3, 'post__in' => array( 124,139) ));

    If I remove the ‘posts_per_page’ restriction this query only retrieves the first id listed:

    $myNewQuery = new WP_Query (array('post_type' => 'testimonial', 'post_status' => 'publish', 'post__in' => array( 124,139) ));

    Is this a BUG ?
    Shouldn’t this still work?

    Not necessarily since you haven’t specified how many posts you want to pull via this custom query. If you want to show all posts, use 'posts_per_page' => -1
