 * I have this Custom Post Type (CPT) defined at `functions.php`:
 *     ```
       register_post_type(
               'opinion',
               array(
                   'label'              => __( 'Opiniones' ),
                   'singular_label'     => __( 'Opinión' ),
                   'labels'             => $labels,
                   'public'             => true,

                   'rewrite'            => array( 'slug' => 'opinion', 'with_front' => true ),

                   'capability_type'    => 'opiniones',
                   'capabilities'       => array(

                       'edit_post'           => 'edit_opinion',
                       'delete_post'         => 'delete_opinion',
                       'read_post'           => 'read_opinion',
                   )
               )
           );
       ```
   
 * And have this code at `front-page.php`:
 *     ```
       <?php
           $prev_post_ids = array();
           $prepost       = $post;
           $normal_args   = array(
               'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1,
               'order'               => 'desc',
               'meta_query'          => array(
                   array(
                       'key'     => '_custom_blog_enhome',
                       'value'   => '1',
                       'compare' => '='
                   )
               ),
               'post_status'         => 'publish',
               'posts_per_page'      => 6
           );
   
           $normal_query  = new WP_Query( $normal_args );
   
           if ($normal_query->have_posts()) {
               while ($normal_query->have_posts()) {
                   $normal_query->the_post();
                   $prev_post_ids[] = $post->ID; ?>
                   <?php $field = 'custom_blog_exclusivo';
                   if ( ! ($$field = get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_'.$field, true ))) {
                       $$field = "";
                   } ?>
   
                   // here goes the HTML markup for display the post not relevant here
   
               <?php }
           }
           $post = $prepost;
           wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
       ```
   
 * But CPT from `slug=opinion` aren’t show. What I need to change in order to display
   them on `front-page.php`?
 * __Performing test__
 * I’m doing some test and my code now looks as follow:
 *     ```
       $prev_post_ids = array();
           $prepost       = $post;
           $normal_args   = array(
               'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1,
               'order'               => 'desc',
               'meta_query'          => array(
                   array(
                       'key'     => '_custom_blog_enhome',
                       'value'   => '1',
                       'compare' => '='
                   )
               ),
               'post_status'         => 'publish',
               'posts_per_page'      => 6,
               'post_type'           => array('opinion','especiales','clasificados','portadadeldia','anunciantes','post','pages')
           );
   
           $normal_query  = new WP_Query( $normal_args )
       ```
   
 * But still not showing posts from `opinion`, why? Any advice?

 * Do the `opinion` posts have the custom field “_custom_blog_enhome” with value
   1?
