Show posts and custom post types – WordPress

Helllo,

I want to show posts and custom post types , can I change post_type in query as array(‘post’,’custom_post_type’)

function get_posts( $args = null ) {
    $defaults = array(
        'numberposts'      => 5,
        'category'         => 0,
        'orderby'          => 'date',
        'order'            => 'DESC',
        'include'          => array(),
        'exclude'          => array(),
        'meta_key'         => '',
        'meta_value'       => '',
        'post_type'        => 'post',
        'suppress_filters' => true,
    );

thanks in advance

    You can add the post_type as a string (single type) or an array (multiple types).

    Example:

    $args = array(
    'post_type' => array( 'post', 'page', 'movie', 'book' )
);

    movie and book above are Custom Post Types.

    If you want all post types just:

    $args = array(
    'post_type' => 'any'
);

    The above retrieves any type except revisions and types with exclude_from_search set to true.

    <?php
$args = array(
    'post_type' => 'my_post_type',
    'post_status' => 'publish',
    'posts_per_page' => -1
);
?>

    If you want to fetch the WordPress posts you can write post in the post_type parameter. If you want to fetch the custom post type you can pass the name of the custom post type like movies or courses, to match whatever your custom post type name is in WordPress.
