You’ve lost me as to why you want this, but the following (untested) code to replace the second half of your code should do what you ask:
// Pull all the posts into the same array
$options_posts_obj = get_posts('numberposts=999');
foreach ($options_posts_obj as $post) {
$options_pages[$post->ID] = $post->post_title;
}
Except maybe changing an early line to:
$options_pages[''] = 'Select a page or post:';

I think I missed out on some important info (and my attempt at humour was terrible).
I want to pull both pages and posts in one single list… as it is now these 2 arrays pull either pages or posts in separate lists.
This how I list the posts
$options[] = array(
'name' => __('Tabbers', 'options_check'),
'desc' => __('Tabber 1?', 'options_check'),
'id' => 'tabber_post1',
'type' => 'select',
'options' => $options_posts);
and the pages
$options[] = array(
'name' => __('Tabbers', 'options_check'),
'desc' => __('Tabber 1?', 'options_check'),
'id' => 'tabber_pages1',
'type' => 'select',
'options' => $options_pages);
But I want to list both pages and posts in one list
thanks 🙂
Yes, and if you modify the code as I suggest, you would just use the second $options[] = array( statement you list in the last post, as it would put both pages and posts in the same list.

Ahh got it, thanks so much. How would I prefix the list of titles with their respective type?
e.g.
post: hello world!
page: Sample page
thanks again 🙂
Hey,
Why don’t you try with the below:
query_posts(‘post_type=page,post’);
Thanks

Can you elaborate a bit more (e.g.show me how?)
How would I prefix the list of titles with their respective type?
e.g.
post: hello world!
page: Sample page
Change the relevant lines of code as follows:
$options_pages[$page->ID] = 'page: ' . $page->post_title;
$options_pages[$post->ID] = 'post: ' . $post->post_title;
<?php
$posts = query_posts(array( ‘post_type’ => array( ‘post’, ‘page’ ) ));
foreach($posts as $post) {
echo ‘post type:’, $post->post_type, ‘ post name:’, $post->post_title, ‘
‘;
}
exit;
?>
Thanks

Thanks Jon it works well… now I’m trying to use your code like this…
<?php $recent = new WP_Query('page_id='.of_get_option('test')); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
But it’s only displaying pages not posts
The of_get_option() function is part of some plugin, and not part of WordPress itself, so I’m not familiar with it. Worse yet, the documentation for it is pretty much non-existent.
‘Fraid I can’t help you as what you’ve coded bears no resemblance to anything suggested above.
All that said, using ‘page_id=’ in WP_Query is obviously only going to return Pages, not Posts.

is there some function that can output either a page or a post if given an ID? I take it pages and posts don’t have the same ID?
There are others, but manishkrag gave you an example in his post:
$posts = query_posts(array( 'post_type' => array( 'post', 'page' ) ));

I’ll try it out and let you know, thanks 🙂
On second thought, WP_Query might work (I haven’t tried this) better for your purposes, and is certainly better documented:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query
I’d experiment with the p= parameter of WP_Query
http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Post_.26_Page_Parameters
and see if given a Page ID, it will return the Page, not just a Post like the doc. says.
And, yes, to answer your other question, ID is unique among Pages and Posts.
