I’d like my frontpage to display a list of my lastest blog posts merged with my latest “Products” custom post type posts.
From the documentation i gather this should work:
query_posts( array('post_type' => array('post', 'product') ) );
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
the_title();
the_excerpt();
endwhile;
But that turns a weird list, made of pages !
Note that I’ve put it outside the loop.
What am i doing wrong?
almost!
when doing it outside of the loop, you have to reset the query as in:
I would use a
new WP_Query. Usingquery_postsis intended for the main loop only.When should you use WP_Query vs query_posts() vs get_posts()?
