The official Wordpress documentation can be found here.

Use WP_query with arguments 'showposts' = 1, but result show 2 – WordPress

I’m trying to get the latest wp posts when I get an error that I don’t know why.

I use showpost to get the impression count but the result is always one more post.

I tried searching but don’t know where is the cause of the problem. I tried replacing showposts with posts_per_page but still the same error.

Anyone who has encountered the same error please help me
thank you!

<?php $args = array(
    'post_status' => 'publish',
    'post_type' => 'post',
    'orderby' => 'date',
    'cat' => 0,
    'order' => 'DESC',
    'showposts' => 1,
);
$getposts_related = new WP_query($args);

if ($getposts_related->have_posts()) :
    while ($getposts_related->have_posts()) : $getposts_related->the_post();
        $placeholder = get_field('logo', 'option'); ?>
        <div class="col-6 col-md-4 col-lg-4 pb-4">

                            echo $url;

    You should not use showposts

    Try using posts_per_page alongside with paged.
    Like this:

    $args = array(
    'post_status' => 'publish',
    'post_type' => 'post',
    'posts_per_page' => 1,
    'paged' => 1
    'cat' => 0,
    'orderby' => 'date',
    'order' => 'DESC',
);

    Your code looks good
    just replace showposts with posts_per_page

    $args = array(
    'post_status' => 'publish',
    'post_type' => 'post',
    'posts_per_page' => 1,
    'orderby' => 'date',
    'cat' => 0,
    'order' => 'DESC',
);
