Show news items in blogroll

Yes, it’s possible.

You have to use pre_get_posts action hook to combine both post types on your index page.

This should work:

function df_combine_post_types( $query ) {
    if ( $query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() ) {
        $query->set('post_type', array( 'post', 'news' ) );
    }
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'df_combine_post_types' );

Thanks for your help!

Where do I add this code, which file?

functions.php of your current theme

I added it to functions.php, but I see no difference.

My news in https://www.benlinders.com/news/ doesn’t show up in the blog roll at https://www.benlinders.com/.

I emptied my caches, no difference.

Anything I can try to debug this?

Apparently it took some time for the CDN to pick up the changes. News is now visible.

Only problem is that the Mantra theme shows my posts in columns and news items do not have the column format. But I’ll figure that out.

Thanks for your help!
