How can I combine this php category_name filter? – WordPress

I am a semi beginner wordpress php developer, and I try to combine 2 different category_name here.

$args = array(
    'post_type'     => 'project',
    'showposts'     => 2,
    'category_name' => $post->post_name,
    'category_name' => 'featured',
    'orderby'       => 'menu_order',
    'order'         => 'ASC',
);

I guess that I may need to combine the 2 category_name here. Do you know how to do it?

I want to know if it is possible to have 2 different types of filters under the same category_name.

    You can use get_cat_ID to get the ID of the category name.

    $args = array(
    'post_type'    => 'project',
    'showposts'    => 2,
    'category__in' => array( get_cat_ID( $post->post_name ), get_cat_ID( 'featured' ) ),
    'orderby'      => 'menu_order',
    'order'        => 'ASC',
);
