 * Hello, I am receiving an error when I click on post links in the sidebar under
   my ‘Recent Posts’.
 * The error is:
 *     ```
       #
   
             Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /mnt/w0805/d26/s15/b02ca57e/www/iupgradecanada.com/wp-content/themes/retrospotive-15/sidebar.php on line 47
       ```
   
 * In the sidebar php the code for the ‘foreach()’ is:
 *     ```
       <li><?php _e('Recent Posts'); ?>
       <ul>
       <?php
       $posts = get_posts('numberposts=5&offset=1');
       foreach ($posts as $post) :
       ?>
       <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title() ?></a></li>
       <?php
       endforeach;
       ?>
       ```
   
 * any help would be appreciated.
