Description
Retrieves post data given a post ID or post object.
See sanitize_post() for optional $filter values. Also, the parameter `$post`, must be given as a variable, since it is passed by reference.
Usage
$WP_Post|array|null = get_post( $post, $output, $filter );
Parameters
- $post
- ( int|WP_Post|null ) optional – Optional. Post ID or post object.
null`, `false`, `0
and other PHP falsey values return the current global post inside the loop. A numerically valid post ID that points to a non-existent post returns `null`. Defaults to global $post. - $output
- ( string ) optional default: OBJECT – Optional. The required return type. One of OBJECT, ARRAY_A, or ARRAY_N, which correspond to a WP_Post object, an associative array, or a numeric array, respectively. Default OBJECT.
- $filter
- ( string ) optional default: raw – Optional. Type of filter to apply. Accepts 'raw', 'edit', 'db', or 'display'. Default 'raw'.
Returns
WP_Post|array|null Type corresponding to $output on success or null on failure. When $output is OBJECT, a WP_Post
instance is returned.
