WordPress.org

Hi all,

I pasted the example of get_posts from the support docs into my site and I am getting the following error:

"invalid argument supplied for foreach()"

I am using the latest version of WP and here is the code:


<ul>
<?php
$posts = get_posts('numberposts=5&offset=1&category=1');
foreach($posts as $post) :
?>
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a> --- <?php the_excerpt(); ?></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>


I got that error when my query doest return any results.
You need to check for that first, like this:
<?php
$posts = get_posts('numberposts=5&offset=1&category=1');
if ($posts!='') {
foreach($posts as $post) :
?>
